Evos FL Microscope
Location: HSC (Building 586) Room 54
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 |
