The Leica SP8 STED microscope is a state of the art confocal microscope with integrated gated stimulated emission depletion (GSTED) super-resolution technology.
Equipment
We have a GSTED super-resolution microscopy from Leica available. The model is Leica TCS SP8 STED.
The following applications are available:
1) Conventional confocal microscopy
2) Super-resolution microscopy with lower resolution limit at 20 nm
3) Live cell confocal microscopy at physiological conditions (adjustable CO2 and temperature).
