Complement your Axioscope 5 or Axiovert 5 with the optional fluorescence LED illumination Colibri 3, and acquire brilliant fluorescence images with ease.

• Save time and money thanks to the long LED lifetime and adjustment-free operation
• Choose up to four fluorescence LEDs to fit your needs
• Upgrade anytime you need to
• Automatic component recognition of the encoded fluorescence LEDs ensure easy setup
• Individually control and switch between channels for UV, blue, green and red excitation - or use selected wavelenghts simultaneously
• Individual fluorescence LED intensity is automatically memorized per objective and reflector position

Colibri 3 delivers the right wavelength and intensity to excite fluorescent dyes and proteins in a gentle way.

Switch effortlessly between the channels for UV, blue, green and red excitation. Then, just select the relevant channels and press snap.

With direct visual status feedback, you are always sure which fluorescence LED is in use. The integrated design does not require an additional power supply and controller, this saves space and makes for easy and ergonomic operation.
