RCM is our second-generation RCM with digital scanner technology. It makes re-scanning the standard and allows a speed of 2fps at 512×512 pixels. RCM has optics to make it suitable for super-resolution imaging with high NA objectives in the low magnification range, like 40x 1.4. A lower magnification allows for a bigger field of view (FOV), brighter images, and even lower laser power. RCM has demonstrated imaging at 10 microwatt excitation power!

The improvements of sCMOS cameras allow you to sample resolution of low magnification objectives effectively, without increasing the exposure time. In a regular PMT-based confocal this is not possible.

Using RCM with a 40x 1.4 objective, you can see more cells at full resolution at once. A larger field of view increases the chances of getting the results you need.

Obtain sharp images with a high signal-to-noise ratio even in samples with a low amount of epitopes or weak stainings. Get more from your samples.

Use even lower laser power to minimize phototoxicity and photobleaching during live-cell imaging.

Getting super-resolution raw images, without averaging or integration, reduces the acquisition time and allows for a more precise analysis of the subcellular structures.
