X-Cite mini+ Compact, LED Illumination System
The X-Cite mini+® is the go-to white-light LED light source for fluorescence imaging and spatial biology applications. An ideal replacement for outdated bulb-based technology, it combines high-power performance with a compact, cost-effective design for routine fluorescence imaging. Developed using the latest LED technology, the X-Cite mini+ provides higher power at the sample plane than any of our previous X-Cite direct-coupled systems. Available in two models with a choice of UV wavelengths (365 nm or 385 nm), labs have the flexibility to choose the one that works best with their preferred or existing DAPI filter sets.
The X-Cite mini+ comes with built-in controls and includes intuitive fingertip control with speedDIAL, hands-free operation with a foot pedal, and USB and TTL inputs for automated applications. X-Cite mini+ has a 20,000 hour warranty; no lamps to change, no mercury disposal fees and no light guides to replace. With energy-efficient LEDs and the advantage of instant ON/OFF to minimize power consumption, the X-Cite mini+ fits into any research lab’s “go-green” strategy.
