Dual Fluorescent Protein Flashlight
May 2021
The DFP flashlights are no longer available. The replacement is the new Xite Flashlight System.
The most popular DFP option was the combination of Royal Blue and Green LEDs, for excitation of GFP and red fluorescent proteins, respectively. The replacement would be the Xite-RB plus the Xite-GR. Note that the cost to purchase both of these lights is less than the price of the DFP.
The Dual Fluorescent Protein (DFP) flashlight was a portable, battery-operated flashlight that included two different, switch-selectable high intensity LEDs for excitation of fluorescent proteins or other fluorophores, and came with matching barrier filter glasses. This had been our only option for flashlights with excitation wavelengths other than Royal Blue. The Xite system is line of single-color flashlights available with any of our five excitation wavelengths.
