NIGHTSEA™ Stereo Microscope Fluorescence Adapter, with Filter
NIGHTSEA™'s new Stereo Microscope Fluorescence Adapter adds fluorescence to just about any stereo microscope (or dissecting microscope) with no modification to the microscope itself. The modular design lets you easily switch between several excitation / emission combinations to work with a variety of fluorescent proteins and other fluorophores.
The NIGHTSEA™ comes now with a BNC-connector.

Description
NIGHTSEA™ Stereo Microscope Fluorescence Adapter is a simple and inexpensive option to upgrade your standard bright-field stereo microscope to a fluorescence stereo microscope without any modifications. NIGHTSEA™ works with LED technology and is available for various excitation/emission wavelengths. A simple click-system makes it easy to change between filter-sets within seconds.
NIGHTSEA™ is available for following wavelengths:
Filter set | Excitation | Emission | Fluorophores |
UV | 360-380nm | 415nm LP | DAPI, ... |
VI - Violet | 400-415nm | 460nm LP | CFP, ... |
RB- Royal Blue | 440-460nm | 500nm LP | EGFP, Fluorescin, Alexa488. ... |
RB-GO - Royal Blue green only | 440-460nm | 500-560nm BP | EGFP, Fluorescin, Alexa488. ... |
CY - Cyan | 490-515nm | 550nm LP | YFP, Venus, Lucifer Yellow, ... |
GR - Green | 510-540nm | 600nm LP | DsRed, dTomato, Alexa568... |
With NIGHTSEA™ your stereo microscope is ready for plenty of new applications:
- Screening and sorting of transgenic lines by fluorescence – Drosophila, Zebrafish, C. elegans, Xenopus, Arabidopsis,...
- Fluorescence-aided dissection, injection, or micromanipulation
- Fluorescence for education – for laboratory courses and in the classroom
- Fluorescence-aided electronic circuit board repair
NIGHTSEA™ is modular and removable...
- A simple click-system installs NIGHTSEA™ within seconds
- Interchangeable excitation/emission combinations
- No modification to your microscope needed
- One set can be used at several microscopes
Economical — More Glow for the Dough...
- Stretch your lab budget
- Inexpensive enough for classroom use
Grows as your lab grows...
- Buy just what you need now (up to 5 different wavelength sets)
- Add more as your needs expand
NIGHTSEA™ Stereo Microscope Fluorescence Adapter system consists of:
- Flexible goose-neck lamp base with power supply
- LED Light head for excitation – available in various wavelengths
- Ring adapter to mount the barrier filter – fits up to 67mm standard lenses
- Barrier filter for emission – easy to attach by magnets
- Filter shield – for direct viewing
Once you are set up for one excitation/emission wavelength combination, additional combinations can be added by purchasing a kit that consists of LED light head, barrier filter, and filter shield.
Microscope Mounting Adapter - fits up to 67mm standard
Please note: Light Head connectors come in two types. They are not interchangeable. The new style connector is called a BNC, and the original connector is a V1. There are two differences - the connector on the end of the gooseneck and the mating connector on the back of the light head. It is easy to tell them apart:
- The BNC connector on the gooseneck is silver, while the V1 connector is black.
- The BNC light heads have the letters BNC printed on the side.
