Extract

"Light was provided by a pE-800 system (CoolLED), controlled via TTL input, and connected to the optical path of Olympus SliceScope Pro 6000 upright microscope (Scientifica) via pE-Universal Collimator (CoolLED). LED light with maximum at 550 nm was applied at 34.3 mW/mm² irradiance in the focal plane of the 20×/ 0.5 NA water objective to activate ErNaR. "

Sustainability

Did you know that LED illumination systems help laboratories reduce their carbon footprint, protecting laboratory staff along the way?

Toxic mercury-based microscope illuminators are bad news for the environment, draw a lot of power and have a short lifetime.

LED illumination systems are cleaner, have a long lifetime and use less power. Our pE-300 Series is also ACT label certified and is a natural choice for labs who want to play their part in helping the environment.
