Fluorescence Filter Set, ODiate®, TRITC Fluorophore

The OD8-FF2020 ODiate® Fluorescence Filter Set has been designed for excellent epi-fluorescence imaging of TRITC and similar fluorophores. The filter set includes one Excitation Filter, one Dichroic Beamsplitter, and one Emission Filter. ODiate Fluorescence Filters are manufactured with a dense sputtering process to meet the highest demands for fluorescence and microscopy applications including exceptionally high passband transmission, maximized out-of-band blocking ≥ OD8, extremely steep slopes, and spectral specifications illuminating fluorescence chemistries to provide maximum image brightness.

In addition to TRITC the following fluorophores are also compatible with this set:

5-TAMRA (MeOH), Abberior CAGE 552 (uncaged), Abberior FLIP 565 (on state), Alexa Fluor^® 546, Alexa Fluor^® 555, ATTO 550, BODIPY^® TMR-X, C3-Thiacyanine (EtOH), C3-Thiacyanine (PrOH), Calcium Orange, CellMask Orange, CF 543, CF 555, CF 568, Cy^®3, DiI, DiIC18 (3), DsRed, DsRed Express, DsRed Tandem-Dimer2, dTomato, DY-547, DY-554, DY-555, E2-Orange, FluoSpheres® Orange, HCS CellMask Orange, HiLyte Fluor 555, HiLyte Plus 555, Magnesium Orange, Merocyanine 540, MitoTracker^® Orange, mOrange, mOrange2, OFP, PO-PRO-3, Pontamine Fast Scarlet 4B, POPO-3, Pro-Q^® Diamond, PromoFluor-546, PromoFluor-555, Quasar^® 570, R-phycoerythrin, Rhod-2, Rhodamine (phalloidin), Rhodamine B, Rose Bengal, Spectrum Orange, SYTOX^® Orange, TagRFP, tdTomato, Tetramethylrhodamine (TAMRA, TRITC), TurboRFP.

Optimized Coatings and Engineering Expertise

Newport pushed the boundaries with the introduction of our ODiate Fluorescence Filter Sets, to allow customers to fully optimize their system performance. Our expert engineering team has been involved from the first stage of design to ensure that we exceed your requirements and continues through the entire process of continual production deliveries.

Environmental Stability and Physical Durability

The coating systems used to produce ODiate filters use a dense sputtering process to provide robust environmental reliability to meet the highest demands for thin-film coatings. The resulting highly durable coatings meet or exceed testing procedures including humidity, thermal shock, adhesion, chemical resistance, and moderate abrasion per U.S. Military and international standards.
