Excitation

• Two solid-state lasers (standard)
• 532 nm and 635 nm for Cy3, Cy5 and similar fluorescence labels
• Peltier-cooled laser modules for enhanced signal stability
• Compact and long lifetime due to solid-state technology

Emission

• Up to 6 emission filters  
• Easy filter exchange with motorized filter wheel
• Standard 580 and 680 nm bandpath (for Cy3, Cy5 and similar fluorescence labels)
• Greyfilter for barcode reading (1D- and 2D- barcodes)
• Other emission filters upon request

Detection

• Low-noise Photomultiplier with highest sensitivity for optimal 'Signal-to-Noise'
• “Quantum efficiency-independent PMT-gain control” (proprietary DITABIS-Design)
• 16-bit dynamic range
• Linear over 4 decades
• Two data channels for up to 20-bit dynamics in one run (proprietary DITABIS-Design)

Scanning

Triaxial, motor X/Y/Z-Scan mechanics

• Pixel resolution adjustable  10  to 100µm
