BrightLine single-band filter set: FITC and similar fluorophores

Semrock Logo

This set is optimized for the most popular green fluorophores like FITC (fluorescein isothiocyanate), 5-FAM, and Alexa Fluor 488. It provides the highest brightness and is ideal for similar fluorophores that have narrower, more closely spaced excitation and emission peaks, like BODIPY.

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.

Optical Specifications
BlockingBrightLine filters have blocking far exceeding OD 6 as needed to ensure a black background, even when using modern low-noise CCD cameras. The blocking is optimized for microscopy applications using our exclusive SpecMaker™ fluorescence filter design.


General Specifications
Microscope CompatibilityBrightLine filters are available to fit Leica, Nikon, Olympus, Zeiss, and Aperio microscopes.
Optical Damage RatingTesting has proven to show no signs of degradation when exposed to at least 6.0 W of power from an unfiltered xenon arc lamp over a 25 mm diameter (corresponding to 1.2 W/cm²) for over 500 hrs.
