Set description
This filter set is ideal for use with Cy5.5™ and Alexa Fluor 680, as well as other deep-red/near-infrared fluorophores. The longer excitation and emission wavelengths of these fluorophores enable deeper tissue penetration. The superb brightness and excellent signal-to-noise ratio of this filter set is also ideal since deep tissue imaging applications often also tend to yield very low light levels.
