Leica is a great value.
Application Area:Basic research at a major University
"I recommend Leica products because they are so easy to use, you get publishable images, and Leica service is outstanding. I have had middle schoolers to postdocs using the SP5 with any problems."

Excellent equipment for physiological and biophysical research
Application Area:Analyze the tissue/cell injury under venom processing
"Effectiveness is very high, but too expensive. It helps a lot in our research, but we still need some upgrades, which are not available for us, because such kind of purchase is very unique in our country."

Excellent instrument- keep up the good work Leica!
Application Area:microbiological analyses
"The ability of this Leica system to use a 'white laser' has been a major step up. It allows one to probe for inherent auto fluorescence at many excitations, which provide critical molecular information, especially regarding proteins. The sensitivity and resolution are getting better compared with older, comparable systems. I hope that sometime soon, Leica will be able to release a combined super-resolution/confocal system. This will be especially helpful in the area of nano-microbial research. "
