Bristol Intruments announce the addition of the 771 NIR2 to their range of spectrum analysers, which features a detection range of 1-2.6µm with the convenience and consistent performance of a pre-aligned fibre-optic input coupling.

The 771 Series Laser Spectrum Analysers combines proven Michelson interferometer technology with fast Fourier Transform analysis resulting in a unique instrument that operates as both a high-resolution spectrum analyser and a high-accuracy wavelength meter. With spectral resolution up to 2GHz, wavelength accuracy as high as +/-0.2parts per million (+/-0.0002nm at 1000nm) and an optical rejection ratio of more than 40dB, the model 771 provides the most detailed spectral charcterisation of lasers that operate from 375nm to 12µm.

Nikon Corporation is pleased to announce the release of the Eclipse Ci-L plus biological microscope.

Long term microscope users know all too well the issues of back and neck strain along with eye fatigue associated with operating and observing specimens under a microscope every day. To reduce these common fatigue problems, Nikon has designed the Eclipse Ci-L plus biological microscope with the intent of eliminating unnecessary operator movements while maintaining the high optical performance of the existing model, the Eclipse Ci-L. The Eclipse Ci-L plus enables users to concentrate on their observations and helps reduce fatigue associated with repetitive microscope operation.

Features:

• LIM (Light Intensity Management) helps reduce eye strain by preventing sudden light intensity changes after changing magnifications
• Ergonomic design contributes to reducing physical strain
• Front panel display enables confirmation of magnification and illumination status at a glance
• Scale bar adjustment linked to nosepiece rotation for more efficient observation
• Automatic shut-off with ECO mode

CoolLED are excited to introduce their new LED microscope illuminator for lightning-fast calcium imaging, pH monitoring, rtiometric fluorescence, FRET and everyday fluorescence micrsocopy, the pE-800^fura

Fluorescence freedom : 8 powerful LED's span 340-635nm to cover all popular calcium and pH indicators, fluorophores and opsins from Fura-2 to Cy5.

Lightning-fast microscopy : Capture dynamic events at the highest temporal resolution and enhance the accuracy of ratiometric measurements with <7µs TTl triggering

Affordable automation: Inline excitation filters and our unique Sequence Runner for triggering illumination sequences with just a single TTL-out of a camera transforms a manual microscope into a powerful automated imaging system.
Low phototoxicity: Comprehensive controls such as fine irradiance modulation and individual channel switching protect samples from phototoxicity and photobleaching, also pushing the boundaries of time-lapse imaging.

Simply better control: In addition to electronic, analogue and GUI control via The LightBridge, full support is available in several imaging software platforms, including NIS Elements and µManager. Integration in cellSens is achieved using the pE-6501-8-FR USB controlled TTL trigger box.
