We’re always coming up with new ways to improve illumination irradiance. The 32E Unique Optical Coupler specially designed by the CoolLED R&D Team offers two main benefits for users of the Leica DMi8:

  • Boosts irradiance by up to 3.2X*, delivering brighter images and higher quality data
  • Reduces costs by removing the need for a fluorescence axis

For microscopists using a Leica DMi8 for Fura-2 imaging, the CoolLED 33E also allows the transmission of light in the UV region and is available for use with the pE-340fura Illumination System.
