Omega Optical Releases New Catalog - Precision Optical Filters for Fluorescence Microscopy

Omega Optical is releasing a new catalog of fluorescence filter sets. The 2007 catalog, Precision Optical Filters for Fluorescence Microscopy, includes fifteen (15) new high performance sets for fluorescent proteins, and ten (10) new sets for FRET applications. 

These new products complement an extensive selection of dye-specific filter sets for all single and multi-label microscopy applications, including Quantum Dots, M-FISH, Pinkel, Sedat, Ratio Imaging, Confocal, and Multi-photon.

In addition, there are resources such as a fluorophore reference table, light source and detector spectral data, an explanation of filter nomenclature, guidelines for choosing the optimal filter sets, and a list of components organized by wavelength.

The company says that rapid delivery, technical support, and long filter life complement its product offering. All filter sets are available online through an e-commerce store.
