Semrock’s LED-based light engine filter sets are designed to use common excitation filters between single-band and corresponding multiband configurations to simplify interchangeability when installing the excitation filters into the light engine. This not only provides seamless transition between using single-band and multiband filter sets but also provides significant cost savings.
This 5-filter "Pinkel" triple-band set is designed for imaging of a sample that is simultaneously labeled with CFP, YFP, and mCherry, (or other key fluorophores – see complete list above). This set has been designed to deliver significant fluorescence signal improvements for LED-based light sources compared with traditional sets designed for standard broadband light sources such as mercury or xenon arc lamps. The complete set is comprised of a triple-band beamsplitter and a triple-band emitter (these can be offered assembled in a microscope cube), plus three "no burn-out" single-band exciters that are intended to be mounted in the LED based light source, or in an exciter filter wheel or slider.
