Higher irradiance, lower cost with CoolLED

Lab design and machinery

We’re always coming up with new ways to improve illumination irradiance, and connecting CoolLED Illumination Systems to the Leica DMi8 Infinity Port instead of the Epi-fluorescence Port leads to irradiance gains of up to 3.2X* – delivering brighter images and higher quality data. In addition, the fluorescence axis is no longer needed, creating significant cost savings.
