The SP5 DS is an upright laser scanning microscope with a motorized XY-stage, two fluorescence detectors and one bright field detector as well as one scanner. It features one diode laser (UV-excitation), Ar-Laser (blue excitation), He-Ne-Laser (green excitation) and an external epifluorescent-lamp. A set of various dichroic head beam splitters, selecting different wavelengths and emissions, allow a robust separation of diverse fluorescence channels.
