Automated Upright Microscope System with
LED Illumination for Life Sciences - Leica DM4000 B LED
Compatible with a variety of user-friendly software packages and camera systems, the Leica DM4000 B LED is the ideal microscope for life science research and clinical applications. Its intelligent automation supports a coded 6x or 7x nosepiece as well as the fully automated transmitted light and fluorescence axes. Parameters are displayed and stored to provide reproducible results.
The Contrast Manager supports transmitted light (brightfield, darkfield, phase and polarization) and fluorescence contrast methods. It allows users to switch from one contrast method to another with a single click of a button - adjusting all relevant settings automatically saving precious time.

Automated transmitted light axisThanks to the fully automated transmitted light axis for brightfield, darkfield, phase and polarization contrast, the microscope detects the selected objective and contrast method, and automatically sets the optimal values. Automatic Koehler light management ensures the best image quality and reproducible results. |
Automated fluorescence axisThe fully automated fluorescence axis with apochromatically-corrected optical path ensures high contrast and brilliant images at a touch of a button. Motorized 5-position filter cube turret, motorized field diaphragm and fast motorized shutter. Leica’s unique Zero Pixel Shift filter cube technology for perfect image alignment of multiple fluorescence proteins |

Fluorescence Intensity ManagerLeica Microsystems’ patented Fluorescence Intensity Manager (FIM) provides fast, accurate and reproducible adjustment of the fluorescence illumination to effectively protect the specimen from photo bleaching. FIM remembers the setting for each filter cube - for fast and absolutely reproducible results. |
Six function keysAssign any function to the six function keys, located behind the focus knobs - frequently used functions are always within easy reach, without having to look away from the specimen. |
