X-Cite mini+™ LED Fluorescence Microscopy Light SourceCompact and High Power white-light LED IlluminationThe X-Cite mini+ is the new go-to white light LED light source for fluorescence imaging applications. High power performance, compact size and economically priced, the X-Cite mini+ is the perfect choice for routine fluorescence imaging.Improved LED technology enables theX-Cite mini+ to provide more power to the sample plane than any of our previous direct-coupled systems. Offering two models with a choice of UV wavelengths (365nm or 385nm), labs have the flexibility to choose the one that works with their preferred or existing DAPI filter sets. The X-Cite mini+ comes with built-in controls and each system includes intuitive fingertip control with speedDIAL, hands-free operation with a foot pedal, and USB and TTL inputs for automated applications. X-Cite mini+ has a 20,000 hour warranty; there are no lamps to change, no mercury disposal fees and no light guides to replace. With energy-efficient LEDs and the advantage of instant ON/OFF to minimize power consumption, the X-Cite mini+ fits into any research lab’s “go-green” strategy.Features and Benefits: LED Technology: Efficiency, stability, instant ON/OFF, long lifetime, mercury-free White Light Excitation: Excitation of commonly used fluorophores such as DAPI, CFP, GFP/FITC, YFP, mCherry/Texas Red, and Cy5 Direct Coupled: High power excitation Multiple Control Options: Simple operation through USB, TTL or speedDIAL Small Footprint: Minimal space requirement; less bench-top real estate used Optimized Thermal Management: Maximum LED output, lifetime, stability and reliability X-Cite Coupling Optics: Efficient optical output and uniformity with highest performing coupling optics Filter Recommendations Fluorophore Filter Type Semrock Filter Chroma Filter DAPI (with XTMS, 365nm) Single LED-DAPI-B 49000 DAPI (with XTML, 385nm) Single LED-DAPI-B 49028 CFP Single LED-CFP-A 49001 CFP/YFP FRET FRET multiple set FRET CFP/YFP-C 89002 FITC or GFP Single LED-FITC-A 49002 YFP Single LED-YFP-A 49003 TRITC Single LED-TRITC-A 49004 mCherry Single LED-mCherry-A 49008 Cy5 Single LED-Cy5-A 49006 Fluorophores Fluorophore Wavelength (nm) DAPI 365/385 CFP 435 GFP/FITC 470 YFP 510 TRITC/Cy3/RFP/mCherry 560 MitoTracker® Red CMXROS 580 Cy5 640 Control Options Control Options Manual Control – speedDIAL ON/OFF Speed sensitive intensity control 1 favorite intensity setting Left and right-handed control option USB ON/OFF Intensity control Compatible with X-Cite 120PC, X-Cite exacte, X-Cite 120LED and X-Cite 110LED drivers TTL ON/OFF Spectral Curve
