Excelitas Technologies to Showcase X-Cite Fluorescence Illumination Solutions at Neuroscience 2018

Who:

Excelitas Technologies® Corp., a global technology leader delivering innovative, customized photonic solutions, will display its wide range of X-Cite® fluorescence illumination products for microscopy at Neuroscience 2018.

What:

  • X-Cite XYLIS: X-Cite XYLIS for fluorescence microscopy features Excelitas’ patented LaserLED Hybrid Drive® and offers a rich, broad spectrum output from 360-750nm for exciting an extended range of fluorophores, with the advantages and simplicity of using LEDs. XYLIS’ enhanced LED coverage from one end of the light spectrum to the other closely matches the output of a mercury arc lamp while eliminating any need for bulb replacement. Its 365nm spectral peak fits perfectly with the narrow DAPI filter sets that are standard in research microscopes.
  • X-Cite 120LEDmini: A compact, simple to use white-light LED light source, X-Cite 120LEDmini is ideal for fluorescence imaging applications. Its direct coupling delivers superior LED illumination and exceptional field uniformity at the specimen level with a broad spectrum of fluorescence excitation for routinely used fluorophores.
    X-Cite 120LEDmini also features manual, PC and TTL control to provide convenient control options for any instrument configuration, from basic to fully automated operation.
  • X-Cite TURBO with LaserLED Hybrid Drive: A solid-state illuminator for fluorescence excitation applications, X-Cite TURBO features six individually controllable wavelengths covering the UV and visible spectrum. X-Cite TURBO’s patented LaserLED Hybrid Drive combines LED and Laser Phosphor Illumination to efficiently generate powerful multi-wavelength solid-state light output in a compact form factor. It also provides researchers with the flexibility to add additional fluorophores for live or fixed cell imaging.
  • X-Cite 120Q Excitation Light Source: X-Cite 120Q uses a 120-watt lamp to deliver rich spectral excitation energy and uniform wide-field fluorescence microscope illumination to the sample plane. Its proprietary Intelli-Lamp® provides more than 2,000 hours of life, and it is also pre-aligned to enable simple, one-step charging. X-Cite 120Q is ideally suited for fluorescence microscopes being used in routine assays and as an excitation light source for use in multi-user facilities.

 

Product experts will be on site at the exhibit hall or available by phone in advance of the conference to provide updates on its market-driven illumination solutions.

When:

November 4 – 7, 2018

Where:

San Diego Convention Center, San Diego, CA. Booth #2529.
