CrestOptics - Model X-Light V2 - Confocal Imaging Spinning Disk Device
The X-Light V2 by CrestOptics represents a versatile and efficient solution for confocal imaging. Designed for rigorous laboratory applications, the X-Light V2 enables swift and gentle imaging without sacrificing data integrity. Compatible with both upright and inverted microscopes featuring a camera port, it supports diverse research needs. Notably, its multi-beam spinning disk technology minimizes photo degradation and phototoxicity, extending the usability of live-cell imaging studies. Furthermore, this system is optimized to capture ultra-rapid cellular dynamics at over 1000 frames per second across a complete field of view, making it a preferred tool for extended live imaging experiments. The product features plug-in functionality, complete compatibility across various platforms, and advanced optical sectioning, positioning it as an industry standard in 3D live cell imaging solutions.
To guarantee each laboratory greater productivity without compromising the data quality, CrestOptics has created the X-Light V2, the most accessible spinning disk solution for fast and gentle confocal imaging.
The X-light V2 is a truly enabling technology where the high-performance is combined with the application fexibility and a universal compatibility with any upright and inverted microscopes with a camera port.
25mm field of view
The X-light V2 enables researchers to routinely perform challenging live-imaging experiments for extended periods of time. The highest spinning disk rotation on the market allows to follow ultra-fast cell dynamics with an acquisition speed of over 1000 fps on full FOV.
The multi-beam spinning method offers not only high-speed imaging but significantly reduced photo bleaching and phototoxicity. This gentle illumination combined with advanced optical sectioning makes the X- light V2 the standard tool for 3D live cell imaging.
