Product Description

High-speed Spinning Disk Confocal imaging with up to 22mm FOV

A flexible, compact but full-fledged spinning-disk confocal solution, CICERO makes high-end fluorescence imaging accessible to every laboratory enabling a variety of applications.

CICERO spinning disk solution delivers fast image acquisition speed (15K rpm) and sensitivity, easily enabling live cell imaging and large-scale 3D object imaging. Due to its large field of view (up to 22mm FOV), CICERO offers a minimal scanning process and can capture large samples in a single frame.

CICERO is a reliable and flexible solution compatible with both LED and Laser as illumination sources. Moreover, the wide spectral range enables a large variety of applications. For this, CICERO allows to address both entry-level and challenging applications.

Technical Specifications

Spectral range (confocal/widefield): 400-750nm

Fully automated experiments

Software controlled bypass mode: widefield to confocal

The fastest spinning disk in the market: 15.000 rpm rotation speed, up to kHz range

Choose your disk: 50um pinholes in two different versions based on different pinole spacing

Choose your disk: unique continuous spiral disk makes it faster for high-speed applications

User inspired: customize pinhole size and geometry on request

Exchangeable, synchronized and sealed: the disk box is one of the most versatile features of the new V3. Dust protection and synchronization signals out to the camera make it reliable and faster.
