The EVOS FL Imaging system is an all-in-one fluorescence microscope designed for efficiency and ease of use. The on-board computer and integrated imaging software allows users to capture and save four channels fluorescence images/data directly from the microscope. The EVOS FL Imaging System is suitable for checking samples before using a high-end microscope system.

Main features of System:

  • Dual 16-bit CCD acquisition cameras (Monochromatic and Color)
  • 22” high-resolution touch screen color monitor
  • Automated X-Y scanning stage with interchangable specimen holder inserts.  We have available inserts for glass slides, culture dishes, multiwell plates, and T-flasks
  • EVOS LED Light Cube Technology.  We have following cubes available:
    DAPI, GFP, RFP, Texas Red, and Cy5

Suggested Applications:

  • Fixed and live cell imaging.

  • Tissue imaging.
  • Sample check before using a high-end microscope system.

Light Sources:

LED light cubes which combine bright LED illumination with excitation and emission filters.  DAPI, CY5, GFP, RFP and Texas Red cubes are available.  A selection guide for matching cubes to dyes is on the ThermoFisher site: Guide

Cube Excitation (nm) Emission (nm)
DAPI 357/44 447/60
GFP 485/25 524/24
RFP 531/40 593/40
Texas Red 585/29 628/32
Cy5 628/40 692/40
