Leica DM IL

Leica DM IL
The Leica DM IL microscope is used to illuminate whole cells; observing and analysing a cell as a single entity. The DM IL is an inverted epifluorescence microscope, with transmitted light LED back illumination and an EL6000 Fluoro system. Fitted with a colour CCD camera this system is also suitable for inspecting samples containing colourometric dyes, such as immunohistochemistry samples.

Common Applications

Immunohistochemistry: Not restricted solely to immunohistochemistry any colorometric stained sample is viewable and recordable on this microscope with its colour CCD camera.
Cell Culture Inspection: As one of our lower resolution microscopes the DM IL tends to be used for quick inspection of cells by eye prior to imaging on other systems. It is free and requires little instruction to use.
