Excitation Filters
Name | Use | Transmission Peak | Bandwidth | Filter Wheel | Factory Installed | Use |
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
P405 | Colorimetric label emission | 405 | 10 | A1 | Yes | Used by Lauffenburger lab for 400nm fluorescence excitation. |
P450 | Colorimetric label emission | 450 | 6 | A6 | Yes | |
P490 | Colorimetric label emission | 490 | 6 | A3 | Yes | Used by Nora in Keating lab for colometric assays to measure abs. |
380DF | 380 | 15 | -- | No? | ||
P570 | 570 | 18 | Uninstalled | |||
595DF | 595 | 10 | -- | |||
D340 | TR fluorescence excitation | 340 | 50 | Uninstalled | Yes | |
D320 | TR fluorescence excitation | 320 | 80 | -- | Yes | |
F485 | Fluorescein excitation | 485 | 15 | A5 | Yes | We use this to excite GFP. Also used by Lauffenburger lab for 485nm fluorescence excitation. |
F355 | Umbelliferone excitation | 355 | 40 | Uninstalled | Yes | |
RFP-544 | RFP excitation | 544 | ? | A2 | No | |
OD-600 | Absorbance | 600 | ? | A4 | No | We use this for the OD600 label |
YFP | YFP excitation | 500 | 8 | A7 | No | |
CFP (F0439A P430) | CFP excitation | 430 | ? | A8 | No | This is listed as a P430, don't know if this means we shouldn't use it as a fluorescent excitation filter. |
Emission Filters
Name | Use | Transmission Peak | Bandwidth | Filter Slide | Factory Installed | Use |
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
D615 | Europium chelate emission | 615 | 8.5 | A1 | Yes | Used by Lauffenburger lab for 590nm fluorescence emission -- only okay, but better than RFP emission filter in slot B2 [F0426A 620nm]. |
D665 | Europium chelate emission | 665 | 7.5 | A8 | Yes | |
D642 | Samarium chelate emission | 642 | 6.5 | A2 | Yes | |
D545 | Terbium chelate emission | 545 | 7.5 | A3 | Yes | |
D572 | Dysprosium chelate emission | 572 | 7.5 | Uninstalled | Yes | |
F535 | Fluorescein emission | 535 | 25 | A5 | Yes | |
F460 | Umbelliferone emission | 460 | 40 | -- | Yes | |
620DF10EM | ? | ? | ? | Uninstalled | ||
630DF10 | ? | ? | ? | Uninstalled | ||
510DF40EM | ? | 510 | 40? | Uninstalled | ||
510DF20EM | GFP emission | 510 | 20? | B1 | Used by Lauffenburger lab for both 505nm and 520nm fluorescence emission -- only okay. | |
F0426A | 620 | ? | B2 | No | We use this for RFP and mCherry emission. Anecdotal evidence suggests that it isn't as bright as the standard GFP label we use. | |
F0436A | YFP emission | 535 | ? | B3 | No | We also use this for GFP emission because we were picking up excitation light when using the 510 filter. |
4D318 Corion | 460 | ? | B4 | No | ||
F0432A D572 | 572 | ? | B8 | No |
Abbreviations:
D = Time resolved fluorometry, including LANCE
F = Fluorometry
P = Photometry
L = Luminometry
These are the recommended applications for the filters. It is not clear whether there is actually any difference between, for example, a fluorometry excitation filter and a photometry filter.
