ET - Fura 2
- Excitation Intensity Note:
-
High levels of excitation light intensity (such as that transmitted by our ET-series excitation filters) could, under some circumstances, lead to rapid photobleaching or phototoxic damage to the sample, and/or high levels of autofluorescent signal.
The use of neutral density (ND) filters in the excitation light path may be required to minimize these effects. Furthermore, the use of a range of multiple ND filters can allow for application- or sample-specific customization of excitation light intensities to maximize signal-to-noise.

79000 Series
This series of filter sets is designed for use with various Indicator Dyes which exhibit multiple absorption or emission peaks to facilitate ratiometric imaging. This allows for the detection and quantification of ratiometric signal intensities, which may indicate changes in the concentration of ion(s) of interest, changes in pH or changes in membrane potential. Sets with multiple excitation filters require the use of a filter wheel to alternate between the various excitation wavelengths. Sets with multiple emission filters require the use of either emission filter wheels or image-splitters.
