Extract

"Dopamine sensors expressed in slices were illuminated by 470 nm LED light (<2% of the maximum output) from a pE-800 (CoolLED) through 40× lens, and the fluorescence light was collected by a photomultiplier tube (R1527P by Hamamatsu) with the anode to cathode voltage of −700 V provided by a PS310 power supply (Stanford Research Systems)."

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.
