Light sheet systems that work for scientists​

Complete Light Sheet Solutions, By Scientists For Scientists.

The promise of light sheet has been a balance of speed and resolution.  Gentle enough for live samples with enough resolution and speed needed to capture dynamic events or provide throughput for vast scales of volumetric data.  LiT delivers that promise with the right balance.​

The challenge with traditional and existing light sheet microscopes​

LBS Provides improved optical sectioning and SNR than traditional SPIM at cellular level. Scale Bars: 3um

Our vision for lightsheet was driven by scientists grappling with challenges in current systems...

Many light sheet systems have advanced by solving one particular problem well, but too many systems suffer from a range of challenges.  Scientists need easy to use systems that maximize total scientific throughput, avoiding a complete mix of problems...​

Long acquisition times
Difficulties in alignment
Uneven illumination
Non-uniform images that can't be analyzed
Data too big to efficiently analyze
Complications in sample mounting​
Complications in operation​
Uncertainty about clearing methods
Uncertainty about analysis methods​

Solving the total equation...​

... with a balanced approach to optical and total workflow efficiency​

LiTone LBS​

Versatile systems optimized for your science

We know one size doesn’t fit all, so we created the LiTone XL and LiTone LBS systems.  Both use our patented Line Bessel Sheets with optical configurations optimized for total throughput and meaningful data generation.  The XL system is optimized for throughput​

Fast live sample imaging​
Stunning 3D Resolution
Ultra-low phototoxicity
Greatly reduced file size​
Highly automated acquisition​
Superior evenness of illumination​

Ground-Breaking Features

Unique four-side illumination
significantly increases the illumination depth and uniformity especially in large cleared samples.
LBS light-sheets and RI correction optics
for the best performance. Resolution up to 500nm.
Compact bench-top design
with built-in vibration isolation. No air-table is required.
Smart and user-friendly LitScan software
with rapid data processing, built-in 3D rendering, multi-position acquisition, auto-stitching and deconvolution.
Capable of long-term imaging for living embryos.
LiTone XL is designed for cleared tissue imaging but is also a proven platform for imaging live Zebrafish or Drosophila embryos with much higher through put than conventional light sheet microscopes.

Applications

Cleared mouse organs, including heart, liver, pancreas, lung and kidney
Cleared mouse brain, showing blood vessels and tumor sites
Living zebrafish embryo (GFP
motor neuron, 24-36hpf)
Cancer cells (yellow) interacting with human epithelial cells (cyan), captured by LiTone LBS
