Excitation light source X-Cite TETREM™

LEDcompact

The new X-Cite TETREM™ is a 4-Channel LED illumination system for fluorescence imaging applications. Engineered for simplicity, power, and flexibility, it delivers reliable excitation for the most widely used fluorophores in microscopy. TETREM’s compact and cost-effective design makes it an ideal choice for researchers performing live cell imaging or upgrading from a lamp-based system for routine applications.The unit is equipped with the all-new X-Cite smartDIAL™ controller, offering a modern, user-friendly, and sleek interface for precise and intuitive manual control. The X-Cite TETREM is designed to cover the four key spectral bands required to excite the most popular dyes used in fluorescence microscopy - DAPI, FITC, mCherry/TRITC and Cy5. There are two different UV LED wavelengths available – 365 nm and 385 nm models - to accommodate your DAPI excitation filter preference. X-Cite TETREM offers the flexibility to operate its four LEDs, either individually or simultaneously, making it well-suited for use with both multi-band and regular filter cubes. Individual LED control will minimize bleed-through with multiband filter cubes and can provide UV-free illumination for reflected light applications. Intensity levels for each channel can be precisely adjusted to optimize excitation of fluorophores or create your perfect white color balance. The X-Cite smartDIAL controller features large tactile buttons, illuminated channel numbers and an OLED display in the central dial to communicate wavelength/intensity information for all four channels simultaneously. With a focus on the key fluorophores and the addition of individual LED control,
