Scientific Research

Different types of microscopes, including optical and electronic, together form different application systems for solving problems. Focusing on the application and development trends of different types of microscopes in experimental teaching and scientific research.

Microscopes, especially confocal microscopes, fluorescence microscopes, and conventional optical microscopes, have wide applications in life sciences, such as cell biology, cell culture, cell imaging, micromanipulation, pathology, toxicology research, zebrafish research, model biology, neurological research, and more.

Cancer research applications

Imaging technology has become an important tool for studying cancer biology. High-resolution imaging is essential for studying changes in genes and cell signaling that cause cancer, while live cell imaging is key to gaining deeper insights into function and disease mechanisms. Microscopic imaging technology is also indispensable for studying the spatial relationships among different types of tumor cells.

Virological applications

By studying the tissues and cells infected with the virus to understand the infection mechanisms and develop treatment methods, this is of great significance for promoting human health. Leica's imaging and sample preparation solutions can help you study viral invasion and fusion, genomic integration, viral replication, assembly, and viral budding.

Cell biology research applications

Microimaging is a very important tool in cell biology, allowing you to study samples in detail within their structural environment and analyze organelles and macromolecules. Cell biology imaging is performed using a series of optical microscopes and electron microscopes.

Organoids and 3D cell culture

Imaging is a key technology for studying 3D cell cultures such as organoids and spheroids. Effective imaging of organoids presents a new set of challenges because they contain large volumes. Organoids can be fixed, labeled, and studied using transparent techniques to image their 3D structures.
