An elegant and economical way to add fluorescence to stereo microscopes for evidence examination. I love it!
– Skip Palenik, Microtrace
The NIGHTSEA Model SFA Stereo Microscope Fluorescence Adapter is an economical way to turn any existing stereo microscope into a go-to tool for screening trace evidence. Not everything has fluorescence, but when it is present it can make all the difference in detection. You can’t analyze something until you find it, and fluorescence can help in that critical step. The SFA makes it easy to add this method to your suite of screening tools.

Why do we offer different color light sources? You need multiple options for excitation wavelengths because different materials may need different wavelengths to cause them to fluoresce.
Recommendations for imaging fluorescence with the Keyence systems are primarily driven by the fact that the fluorescence emitted by your sample tends to be weaker than the reflected white light that the system is designed to image. This means that you will want to adjust things to either get more light to the camera, […]
It is important to understand the impact that the choice of barrier filters can have on your fluorescence images. You may even think you are seeing something that is not there.
