CoolLED pE-340fura
Description
Resulting from our collaboration with the University of Strathclyde, the pE-340fura is a bespoke LED Illuminator for Fura-2 ratiometric calcium imaging. The system utilises the successful pE-300 Series platform, and also supports everyday fluorescence microscopy in a compact and affordable package.

Features
- Dedicated 340 nm and 380 nm outputs for Fura-2 ratiometric calcium imaging
- Broad white output (435 nm – 645 nm) for imaging standard fluorophores
- Microsecond switching (340/380) for capturing high-speed events
- Stable LED illumination minimises noise below that of experiment, reducing false positives and increasing precision.
- Higher signal-to-noise gives cleaner images and data whilst requiring less Fura-2 dye, reducing toxicity and costs
- UV optimised optics delivers maximum irradiance on standard microscope configurations
- Individual channel triggering via TTL in microseconds
- Removable inline excitation filter holders: no moving parts for fast acquisition
- Sequence Runner – sequenced excitation from a single TTL-out
- Individual channel selection controls the level of excitation of each dye independently on a multi-stained sample
- Compatible with most imaging software for integrated control with imaging set up
- Precise irradiance control in 1% steps (0-100%): no ND filters required
