BrightLine Basic single-band filter set: FITC and similar fluorophores

Size	Clear

This filter set is ideal for use with FITC and other popular green fluorophores. This hard-coated filter set is the best value on the market, delivering higher brightness than the comparable premium soft-coated filter sets with similar contrast.

Want options?

For an even more economical FITC filter set, see our FITC-LP01-Clinical set, designed for clinical applications. This set is still hard-coated, and features a longpass filter.

For the highest performance, try our flagship BrightLine FITC-3540C set.

Note on spectral plots:
In the past, each shipment has included a spectral plot for every filter and every lot code in the shipment. In an effort to be more eco-friendly, we will no longer be including these plots with each shipment. If you require spectral plot data, please see here for more information.
