Due to the diffraction limit of light, traditional confocal microscopy cannot resolve structures below ~240 nm. Super-resolution microscopy techniques, such as STED, PALM or STORM or some deconvolution processing methods, are used when enhanced resolution is needed to study structures and molecular events below the diffraction limit scale.

Super-Resolution imaging with STELLARIS confocal platform

The STELLARIS confocal platform gives access to super-resolution with LIGHTNING and STED technologies for visualizing structures with greater precision and uncovering details that would otherwise not be visible.
