Introducing the Lumen 1600-LED Universal Fluorescence Illumination System
With its 16 selectable LED wavelengths, the Lumen 1600-LED is compatible with all simple and multiband fi lter sets. T e Lumen 1600-LED has a “white light” mode with simple on/off and intensity buttons. Fitting directly to most microscopes, the system enables for rapid switching between
LED wavelengths to allow for capture of high-speed events. T e Lumen 1600-LED is controlled via a manual keypad controller, TTL, USB as well as analog input for dynamic intensity control.

BioTools Unveils Revolutionary Family of Portable Raman Microscopes
T e Mobile μ Raman is for particles, liquids, contaminants, and fi bers, and the μ -BioRaman is for protein analysis. Each combines the imaging strength of optical microscopy with the insight of Raman spectroscopy. Moving to a portable mode has enabled shorter, more effi cient light
paths, signifi cant drops in laser power that are gentler on the sample, and faster scanning. When coupled with surface-enhanced Raman scatter substrates or capillaries, these small powerhouses can collect a spectrum in 10 seconds.
