NEW Fluorescence Imaging Interference Filters
Introducing NEW multiband filters for fluorescence detection Available individually or as sets. Each set has 3 multi bandpass filters (excitation, emission, dichroic), and the “Pinkel” versions of these three new sets contain separate narrow band excitation filters for selected excitation of each fluorophore.
Multi band pass filters are widely used in fluorescence imaging applications as a means of rapidly identifying positively labeled multi color samples. The filters are optimized to provide high transmission, steep edges and deep blocking for balance in contrast, brightness, and color representation.
All filters are manufactured using Omega Optical’s proprietary MEGALux © optical coating technology.

Fluorophores Filter Set # Notes Components
Type Part # Description
FITC/ TRITC or eGFP/ DsRed2
XF452 High throughput filter set for green and orange emitting fluorophores such as FITC and TRITC. This set offers excellent contrast and can also be used with Alexa Fluor® 488, Cy2, and GFP-like fluorescent proteins, as well as Alexa Fluor®568 and tdTomato.
Exciter XF1450 490-550DBEX
Dichroic XF2443 490-550DBDR
Emitter XF3456 520-580DBEM
FITC/Texas Red® or eGFP/mCherry
XF453 XF453 is optimized for use with the fluorescent proteins eGFP and mCherry. This high contrast set utilizes the 577nm Mercury peak for efficient excitation of red emitting fluorophores and is also compatible with many other common fluors such as FITC and Texas Red®.
Exciter XF1451 484-575DBEX
Dichroic XF2044 490-575DBDR
Emitter XF3457 525-637DBEM
FITC/ Cy5® XF454 Due to their wavelength separation, FITC and Cy5 make a popular choice for dual labeling in a single sample as spectral bleedthrough is virtually non-existent. This set is ideal for any green and far red emitting fluors. Other compatible dyes are, Alexa Fluor®488, Hylite 488, Oregon Green, Cy2, and Alexa Fluor®647, Hylite 647.
Exciter XF1409 475-625DBEX
Dichroic XF2401 475-625DBDR
Emitter XF3404 535-710DBEM
FITC/TRITC or eGFP/DsRed2
XF452-1 Pinkel – a set contains 2 bandpass excitation filters, single multiband dichroic beamsplitter and single multiband emission filter.

PINkEl FIlTER SETS
Obtaining a high quality image using a black and white CCD camera requires a different approach. Pinkel filter sets selectively excite one fluorophore in a multi labeled sample through the use of fluor specific narrow band excitation filters housed in a filter wheel or slider. These filters are used with a multi band dichroic mirror and emission filter which remain in the filter holder turret. This design reduces the spectral bleed-through of the traditional multiband filter set, and minimizes sample movement by isolating the wheel from the microscope stage.
