Publish your research story

You share your research stories by publishing in scientific journals. The LI-6800 is your partner in research—it reveals biological processes with its measurements so you can create compelling publications with your data.

LI-6800 features that safeguard the collection and quality of publishable data include:

  • startup iconAutomated startup, system tests and real-time operating status information ensure that the instrument starts and performs in top form, allowing you to quickly address issues if they arise.
  • battery iconLong-lasting, hot-swappable batteries keep up with you on long days. Battery charge status and a low-battery warning on the display let you keep going without interruption until you complete your measurements.
  • touch screen iconA responsive touch screen with a powerful graphics processor helps you visualize and understand the instrument settings.
  • charts iconCharts of live and logged data show multiple parameters at once. You can auto-scale, zoom in, and rescale charts to let the data reveal its story.
  • data log iconConfigurable data logging capabilities help you get the data you need for a robust, thorough analysis.
  • files iconData are recorded as plain text and Microsoft® Excel® files with embedded equations so you can recompute datasets with altered parameters.


Novel advancements

LI-COR continues its tradition of innovation in environmental measurement technology and applications. The LI-6800 features advancements not found in any other photosynthesis system.

Aquatic photosynthesis

The 6800-18 Aquatic Chamber—with the LI-6800 Portable Photosynthesis System—measures steady-state carbon assimilation and chlorophyll a fluorescence from algal suspensions, coral, macro algae, sea grasses, and more.

Dynamic Assimilation™ Technique

The Dynamic Assimilation Technique, based on a reformulation of the traditional assimilation equation, allows you to take measurements when chamber conditions are not at steady state, so you can record faster CO2 response curves and survey measurements.
