EquipmentLeica Stellaris 8 FALCON Confocal Microscope

Experience cutting-edge imaging with our Leica Stellaris 8 FALCON confocal microscope, the ultimate platform for advanced biological and live-cell analysis. This state-of-the-art system combines a tunable White Light Laser (440–790 nm) with a 405 nm diode, enabling up to eight simultaneous excitation wavelengths for unparalleled multicolour flexibility. Equipped with high-sensitivity Power HyD detectors, the Stellaris 8 FALCON delivers exceptional signal-to-noise performance and captures even the faintest signals across visible and near-infrared ranges. Its defining feature—FALCON (FAst Lifetime CONtrast)—integrates fluorescence lifetime imaging (FLIM) directly into the confocal workflow. With Leica’s exclusive TauSense technology, users can separate overlapping fluorophores, visualise molecular interactions (e.g. FRET), and track dynamic cellular events with remarkable precision. Beyond lifetime imaging, the system offers high-speed resonant scanning and LIGHTNING super-resolution reconstruction, allowing detailed 3D, time-lapse, and live-cell studies under controlled environmental conditions. Whether you need to explore complex intracellular signalling, assess metabolic activity, or capture high-definition structural detail, the Stellaris 8 FALCON provides unmatched performance and flexibility. Our facility offers full imaging support and data analysis, helping you obtain publication-quality results for your research in cell biology, molecular interactions, and advanced microscopy. Partner with us to unlock deeper insight into your samples through next-generation confocal imaging.
