Invitrogen™ EVOS™ Light Cube, YFP 2.0

Description

• Second-generation EVOS LED light cubes provide superior illumination uniformity across the field of view, resulting in exceptional tile-stitch image quality At the same time, optimized spectral fidelity across channels significantly improves data quality by minimizing undesired bleed-through Like the original design, they combine condensing optics and hard-coated filters into one light engine that delivers digitally controlled fluorophore excitation These LED light cubes are backwards compatible with older EVOS and Countess systems
• and can be used with first-generation light cubes Like the original light cubes, these LED cubes are user-changeable and automatically recognized by the instrument The EVOS Light Cube, YFP 2.0, is ideal for use with EYFP, Venus, acridine orange, and other fluorophores with excitation and emission maxima near 500 and 542 nm The LED bulbs on the EVOS systems are rated for >50,000 hours, compared to 300 hours for a typical mercury bulb and 1,500 hours for a metal halide bulb EVOS LED light cubes offer these important advantages: Uniform illumination across the entire field of view for superb image quality Optimized spectral compatibility to maximize true signal detection, while minimizing bleed-through for the best possible data quality A short light path that affords superior detection of fluorescent signals Stable illumination intensity over 50,000 hours that helps experimental reproducibility
