BC43 - Widefield and Confocal Benchtop Microscopes

Exceptional performance, Certified quality

  • Versatile High-Quality Imaging: Flawlessly captures 2D and 3D images in both widefield and confocal modes.
  • One-Click Super-Resolution: Unlock extraordinary resolutions down to 140 nm with just the push of a button.
  • Uncompromising Reliability: Certified build quality ensures your data is consistently reproducible across different experiments and research groups.
  • Industry-Leading Software Included: Features Fusion Benchtop for effortless multimodal acquisition and Imaris, the market's top choice for image analysis.


Confocal, Widefield & Transmitted Light Microscopy All-In-One

The BC43 benchtop microscope delivers an all-in-one imaging experience, available in two flexible models: Widefield (WF) and Confocal (CF). Both systems come standard with transmitted light options—including DPC and brightfield—and are fully upgradable to super-resolution.

If you work with thinner samples like cells or tissues, the BC43 WF is your ideal starting point, offering an easy field upgrade to confocal whenever your research demands grow. For ultimate performance, the BC43 CF integrates award-winning Dragonfly technology to capture fast, stunning 3D images across both thin and thick samples, such as organoids. Backed by our innovative IQ/OQ certification program, both models ensure hassle-free, routine imaging with guaranteed reliability.

Designed in collaboration with leading biologists, the BC43 Benchtop Confocal fits seamlessly into a single-room workflow to support a wide range of life science applications. Regardless of your sample, it delivers instant clarity and stunning depth—premium performance traditionally reserved for much larger, complex, and expensive imaging systems.

Imaris – AI-Powered Market leader in Image Analysis

Every Andor Benchtop Microscope comes standard with the Imaris Quant package, equipping you with the world’s leading interactive microscopy software to elevate your research:

  • Advanced Visualization: Seamlessly explore and interact with your 2D, 3D, and 4D images.
  • AI-Enhanced Detection: Accurately identify and characterize objects using a powerful combination of traditional intensity-based methods and cutting-edge AI tools.
  • In-Depth Analytics: Automatically generate extensive statistics—including counts, morphology metrics, and intensity values—to easily compare results across experiments.
  • Stunning Media Creation: Effortlessly export high-resolution snapshots and multi-dimensional movies for your publications and presentations.
Additional Imaris modules are available for tracking motility metrics, quantifying cells and intracellular organelles, and precise neuron tracing.

Dragonfly High Speed Confocal Microscope Systems

The Dragonfly is a high-contrast multi-dimensional imaging system that provides high-quality confocal images across scales, from the subcellular level to entire organisms. At its core is a multi-point confocal (spinning disk) for high-speed and high-sensitivity imaging. Capturing at speeds at least 10x faster than conventional confocal technology, with dramatically improved sensitivity from 400-800 nm.

It enhances productivity by combining speed and sensitivity, enabling researchers to observe dynamic events and live organisms for extended periods. The B-TIRF and super-resolution modules reveal finer details, such as viral infection dynamics and chromatin or organelle ultrastructure. Each Dragonfly high-speed confocal includes Fusion software for effortless image acquisition and Imaris for AI image analysis.

We have the following models of Dragonfly available:

Regardless of your microscopy application, the Dragonfly microscope series provides you with a solution for your research problems.
