If you work with fluorescence the Illumatool Tunable Lighting System Epi
will be of particular interest. The Illumatool TLS is a unique system,
which provides a safe alternative to ultra-violet radiation while
reducing damage to biological samples. The Illumatool TLS can be tuned
to a particular visible wavelength (between 390 nm - 750 nm) and has
enjoyed success with a number of DNA dyes and GFP variants. With respect
to GFP it has been tested with bacterial cultures, living nude mice,
living plants, inside plastic tubes and 96 well plates. Due to the
flexibility of Illumatool TLS the list of applications will continue to
grow. Additional information and tech notes can be found at the
Lightools Research Web site www.lightools.com.
