NEW X-Cite® FIRE Fluorescence Microscopy

X-Cite FIRE light source for fluorescence microscopy offers a rich, broad spectrum output from 360-750nm, for exciting an extended range of fluorophores with the advantages and simplicity of using LEDs.

X-Cite FIRE is a true arc lamp replacement for routine and advanced fluorescence imaging applications. It has the broadest spectrum available in a white light LED for fluorescence microscopy and rivals traditional arc lamps for brightness – making it ideal for both compound and stereomicroscopes. Built to X-Cite’s high quality standards, X-Cite FIRE makes it possible to enjoy the benefits of LEDs without compromising on price, flexibility, or performance.
In addition to its powerful output and broad DAPI to Cy7 spectral range, X-Cite FIRE offers the ultimate in flexibility – options are standard. Delivering light through a light guide alone or with a choice of more than a dozen microscope adaptors, X-Cite FIRE can be installed on just about any new imaging system or used to retrofit the microscopes labs have depended on for years. Offering two models with a choice of UV wavelengths (365nm or 385nm), labs may choose the one that works with their preferred or existing DAPI filter sets. When it comes to control options, all are built-in to every X-Cite FIRE – each system includes intuitive fingertip control with speedDIAL, hands-free operation with a foot pedal, and USB and TTL inputs for automated applications.
