ACCUVA CELLECT
Laser Capture Microdissection (LCM)
LAXCO Inc.
The Accuva Cellect Laser Capture Microdissection (LCM) system is resulting from more than 20 years of experience in LCM. It combines the power of infrared (IR) laser capture and ultraviolet (UV) laser cutting in one unique, compact platform. The IR laser delivers a gentle capture technique that preserves the overall biomolecular integrity of cells, optimized for individual cells and small cell groups. The UV laser permits superior speed and precision and is well suited for microdissection of dense tissue structures and rapid capture of large numbers of cells.
Designed for laser capture microdissection, this dual-laser system ensures that sample custody is always maintained, thereby enabling researchers to uncover unique molecular signatures that would otherwise be obscured in a heterogeneous cell population.
The Accuva Cellect is designed and assembled by our Partner Laxco Inc. in the USA.
Features
Dual laser system
enables a wide range of applications from single cell isolation to large biopsy extractions. It expands utility and helps to ensure reliability of cell capture across different sample types without causing contamination or damage to morphology.
Minimized contamination
is ensured by the CapSure sample collection cap and overhead handling throughout the LCM process. The CapSure caps are moved by an automated system, reducing human interaction and minimizing potential contamination during cell collection.
Sample flexibility
is guaranteed as Accuva Cellect supports a wide range of slide types and sample preparation formats. Existing workflows can be used or validated workflows are available.
Intuitive software
allows rapid isolation of specific cells in five simple steps and quality control with visual inspection, making documentation and sample custody easy.
Compact design
is the result of the base unit’s footprint being around a third smaller than other microscope and laser systems, and the computer being built into the Accuva Cellect. This saves bench space.
