McBain Instruments and VisiTech International Ltd. recently partnered to distribute three confocal microscopy systems. The distribution agreement will include three of VisiTech’s scanning systems: the VT-Infinity, a high-speed multi-point confocal module with adjustable pinholes capable of 800 frames per second across a broad range of wavelengths; the VT-Eye, an acousto optical deflector-based confocal laser scanning head microscope; and the QLC100 spinning disk head, a real time, laser-based confocal for live-cell imaging.

“As a pioneer in advanced high-speed integrated imaging systems, we welcome this strategic partnership with VisiTech International,” says Michael Crump, McBain Instruments’ president and CEO. “We’ll continue to expand our technical expertise, custom engineering services and microscopy product offerings to meet the increasing demands of our customers in the life sciences and biomedical research arenas.”
