Laxco makes precision optical instruments and microscopes, offering the CellLive live-cell imaging platform, the LEAP AI integrated imaging and analysis solution for life science applications, and SeBa product lines that serve clinical microscopy; its laser capture microdissection system pairs gentle IR single-cell capture with a UV laser for dense tissue.
Its microscopes and imaging solutions serve laboratories, researchers, educators, and industry. After capture, the remaining sample stays intact with no structural damage to cells. The dual laser system enables a wide range of applications from single-cell isolation to large biopsy extractions, using an IR laser suited to single cells and small numbers of cells and a UV laser offering speed and precision for dense tissue structures; analysis of a non-targeted sample can miss specimens where samples are small or homogenized.
