LMD6500 Microdissection Tool

The new Leica LMD6500 is the ideal microdissection tool to distinguish between relevant and non-relevant cells and tissues. Forensic DNA Technologists can selectively and routinely analyze microscopic regions of interest down to a single cell to obtain results and make determinations that are relevant, reproducible, and specific. The laser beam movement of the Leica LMD6500 is controlled by high precision optics, whereas the microscope stage and the sample are both fixed. This allows precise cutting accuracy at high magnifications, as well as high cutting speed at low magnifications.
