NIGHTSEA Stereo Microscope Fluorescence Adapter


Adapt your existing lab stereo microscopes for fluorescence


Overview


The NIGHTSEA Stereo Microscope Fluorescence Adapter adapts just about any stereo microscope (dissecting microscope) for fluorescence with no modification to the microscope itself. The modular design lets you easily switch between several different excitation/emission combinations to work with a variety of fluorescent proteins and other fluorophores. There are now six different excitation/emission combinations available, plus white light.


Applications This simple system is excellent for:


n Quick screening of your fluorescent genotypes - Drosophila, zebrafish, C. elegans,...


n Genotype sorting n Fluorescence-aided dissection, injection, or micromanipulation n Pre-screening sample preps for confocal or other high-resolution imaging


Fluorescence isn’t just for research


microscopes anymore... n Now sort on your laboratory-level stereos n Use to facilitate micromanipulation and dissection n Expand from your research lab to your classroom


Modular... n Installs in seconds - just clicks into place n Interchangeable excitation/emission combinations n Move from microscope to microscope n No modification to your microscope needed


Economical — More Glow for the Dough... n Stretch your lab budget n Inexpensive enough for classroom use


Grows as your lab grows... n Buy just what you need now (up to 6 different wavelength sets) n Add more as your needs expand


Here are samples of what you can see:


n Freeing up your research-grade fluorescence microscopes for more demanding work


n New faculty start-up budgets n Bringing fluorescence into the teaching laboratory


n Coating and failure analysis, circuit board work, defect location, food safety, paper analysis, and more


The Stereo Microscope Fluorescence Adapter system consists of:


• Flexible gooseneck lamp base with power supply


• Adapter for microscope


• Light head • Barrier filter • Filter shield


The light head, barrier filter, and filter shield are interchangeable so that you can easily switch between excitation/emission light+filter combinations.


The microscope mounting adapter fits up to 67mm to work with the majority of stereo microscopes. An oversize adapter and an adapter for the Leica EZ4 series are also available.
