The Lumen 1600-LED mercury-free fluorescence illumination system has use in advanced fluorescence microscopy techniques.

The Lumen 1600-LED mercury-free fluorescence illumination system has use in advanced fluorescence microscopy techniques. The system's 16 LEDs have a 25,000 hr. lifetime, and they cover 365–770 nm wavelengths for work involving multiple fluorophores. A four-channel system allows up to four distinct fluorophores to be excited simultaneously. Light is delivered to the microscope via a light guide to isolate vibration or heat from the samples. Multiple pre-set modes are possible.
