Extract

"Reflection and luminescence images emitted by the sample were collected in various spectral ranges using a setting coupling (1) an illumination device employing 16 different LED lights (from 365 up to 700 nm wavelength, CoolLED pE-4000) and (2) a light filter device placed in front of the camera detector (a wheel holding six interference band-pass filters collecting signal within in six spectral ranges from 435 to 935 nm)."

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.
