Laser Capture Microdissection
Accuva Cellect isolates single cells and small groups with an infrared laser and cuts dense structures such as bone or plant tissue with a UV laser.
Single-cell RNA analysis depends on which cells enter the experiment and how well their RNA is preserved. Laxco's Accuva Cellect laser capture microdissection system isolates selected cells or regions from FFPE and fresh-frozen sections while documenting their location, and LEAP AI supports consistent image analysis before capture.
Tools for isolating, imaging, and preparing cells for single-cell and region-specific RNA analysis.
Accuva Cellect isolates single cells and small groups with an infrared laser and cuts dense structures such as bone or plant tissue with a UV laser.
Capture individual cells or small populations from tissue sections for low-input genomic workflows.
LCM-optimized RNA extraction and linear amplification help prepare small samples for RNA-seq libraries.
Capture defined regions and generate region-specific expression profiles linked to tissue architecture.
LEAP AI combines Accuva LEAP optics with deep-learning segmentation for consistent image analysis.
Collect scarce or scattered target cells individually from tissue sections.
Research laboratories use Accuva Cellect to isolate selected cells or regions from tissue sections before RNA analysis. The infrared laser captures single cells or small groups, and the UV laser cuts dense structures. Each capture is documented in software, linking expression data to tissue location. LEAP AI adds deep-learning segmentation and reporting for consistent image analysis across samples and operators.

The team behind Laxco's optical and laser capture microdissection systems.
Laxco, Inc. is headquartered in Mill Creek, Washington, and has more than 20 years in precision optics and microscopy, serving life science, diagnostic, educational, and industrial laboratories. Through its partnership with Media Cybernetics, Laxco offers LEAP AI, which combines Accuva LEAP optics with AI-powered analysis software. Its Accuva Cellect laser capture microdissection system supports researchers who need defined cell populations for molecular analysis, backed by application training and technical support.
Cost depends on the platform, number of cells or samples, sequencing depth, and analysis. Core facilities usually quote by project. Careful cell selection and RNA quality checks before library preparation help avoid repeating failed runs, which is often a larger cost than the isolation step.
