With utility in fluorescence imaging applications, the X-Cite 110LED white-light LED source from Excelitas Technologies (Waltham, MA) uses liquid-light-guide coupling to deliver broad-spectrum optical power without adding mechanical vibration. An electronic shutter provides fast, sub-millisecond operation to enable precision in vibration-sensitive imaging experiments. Providing excitation for DAPI, GFP, mCherry, Cy5, and other commonly used fluorophores, the LED source can be used in routine imaging on compound or stereomicroscopes. An instant LED on/off capability minimizes photobleaching and phototoxicity in specimens while offering ultrafast PC control and TTL triggering.
