Strategic collaboration extends spinning disk microscopy capabilities
Oct 11 2024
Under a new partnership Leica Microsystems will now be offering CrestOptics’ CICERO spinning disk unit within its new THUNDER Imager Cell Spinning Disk system, bringing Leica Microsystems’ powerful imaging technologies to customers in the spinning disk market for the first time.
Launched in April 2023, CICERO was developed to make high-end imaging accessible to the wider scientific community. The system’s design centres around the essential elements of epi-fluoresence and confocal microscopy, providing a highly compact and cost-effective solution for customers working with challenging large and 3D samples.
Renato Giacobbo Scavo, CEO, CrestOptics, said “Leica Microsystems provide a wide array of unique and powerful solutions for the imaging market, including the THUNDER platform, Adaptive Immersion and many more. By partnering with Leica, we are helping to bring these solutions to the spinning disk microscopy market for the first time, allowing customers to leverage the benefits of these technologies in parallel with CICERO’s confocal imaging capabilities for high resolution imaging of large, often challenging, 3D samples.”
“As the spinning disk microscopy market continues to grow rapidly, the launch of this new system is a crucial milestone for us.” commented James O’Brien, Vice President Life Sciences and Applied Solutions, Leica Microsystems. He continued: “CrestOptics’ CICERO provided the ideal route to incorporate spinning disk capabilities within our THUNDER platform bringing both power and simplicity. We’re pleased to offer this new solution to our customers, that will allow them to combine the benefits of spinning disk microscopy with our range of cutting-edge technologies, for advanced imaging of complex samples.”
