Dr Eisuke Koya shares some insights into his new pE-400max
We are always delighted to hear from the scientific community about our CoolLED Illumination Systems.
Recently, Dr Eisuke Koya from the School of Psychology (University of Sussex), shared some beautiful images taken by his colleague Dr Kate Peters, using the CoolLED pE-400max Illumination System:

Fantastic Testimonial
Dr Koya also commented on the new addition to their lab:
“We are happy with the pE-400max as it’s super-compact, bright and quiet! I forgot that it was turned on. Also, no more changing expensive and environmentally hazardous mercury bulbs. We look forward to some nice imaging days ahead.”
We wish Dr Koya and his team all the best for their future research, and can’t wait to learn about their breakthrough neuroscience discoveries!

About the pE-400max
The pE-400max is the most advanced Illumination System in the pE-400 Series. The pE-400 Series delivers the most advanced yet cost-effective illumination for routine to advanced fluorescence microscopy applications. Four powerful LEDs offer broad spectral coverage from 365-635 nm for use with fluorophores ranging from DAPI through YFP to Cy5.
While the bright white pE-400 offers the ideal lamp replacement, the four-channel pE-400max enhances performance in applications where speed and control is crucial, such as live cell imaging and optogenetics.
If your application has unique requirements, the pE-400 and pE-400max are also available in the Amora Series: our proven off-the-shelf product range adapted to offer unparalleled customisation opportunities. Click here to find out more about our OEM solutions.
