This set is designed to take advantage of the superior resolution, sensitivity, and image fidelity of today’s state-of-the-art laser-based microscopes. The filter spectra are optimized to capture the maximum fluorescence from GFP, FITC, and other similar fluorophores while offering superb blocking of popular 473 nm (solid-state) or 488 nm (Ar-ion gas and solid-state) lasers. The dichroic offers excellent flatness for minimal focus shift and aberrations of the laser beam spot at the sample.
Looking for this filter set in one of the following cubes: NTE, OFF, OMF or ZHE?
Our improved version is certified to deliver dichroic flatness <= λ/2 PV per inch @ 632.8 nm for loose and cube mounted filter sets LF488-D
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.
