Product description

High-performance confocal laser scanning microscope with tandem scanning, prism spectrometer, AOBS, and multiphoton imaging.

The Leica TCS SP5 is a high-performance confocal laser scanning microscope designed to meet the advanced imaging needs of researchers across various scientific disciplines. This instrument offers exceptional flexibility and precision, making it ideal for detailed analysis of both fixed and live specimens.

Key features include:

  • Tandem scanning system: Combines conventional and resonant scanners for high-resolution static imaging and rapid capture of dynamic processes.
  • Prism spectrometer: Ensures maximum light transmission and flexible spectral band selection.
  • Acousto-Optical Beam Splitter (AOBS®): Allows immediate adaptability to new laser wavelengths or fluorochromes.
  • High-speed acquisition: Resonant scanner capable of capturing up to 200 images per second.
  • Multiphoton microscopy compatibility: Equipped with non-descanned detectors optimized for deep tissue imaging.
  • User-friendly interface: Software assistants for techniques such as FRAP, FRET, and FLIM.

The Leica TCS SP5 is widely utilized in fields such as cell biology, neurobiology, pharmacology, and cancer research. Its versatility makes it a valuable tool in university laboratories, biomedical research centres, and clinical environments. Introduced in the early 2000s, this system remains relevant due to its modular design and upgradability, ensuring it meets the evolving demands of modern scientific research.

Why Questpair exists

Lab equipment markets are fragmented. Buyers spend weeks calling distributors, comparing quotes, and verifying supplier reliability. Sellers struggle to reach global research labs.

We built Questpair to fix this. Every supplier on the platform is verified before listing. Every quote you receive comes from a real, vetted seller. AI prepares your case in minutes, then a real specialist takes over.

We're an independent team based in The Netherlands, working with research labs and procurement teams across Europe and worldwide.

Frequently asked questions

How long does laboratory equipment typically last?

With a service contract, ten to fifteen years is normal for most benchtop instruments. Detectors and pumps are the parts that wear first.

Can I get service for older equipment?

Often, yes. Verified suppliers frequently work with service partners converting the instrument. If applicable, we can list servicing options alongside the offer.

Where can I buy parts?

Ask a scientist through the request button. Parts are often available even when the instrument itself is discontinued.

What is the typical lead time for refurbished equipment?

Two to six weeks, depending on refurbishment scope and whether calibration is included.

Does laboratory equipment ship internationally?

We ship to 38 countries. Crating and customs handling are quoted with the instrument.
