Prizmatix Ultra High Power LEDs (> 50 Watt) are perfect match for new research applications needing high power illumination of microplate or Petri dish. The highest power is achieved by utilizing direct projection of large emitting area (>9mm²) Ultra High Power LED to the microplate or Petri dish without use of light guide.

Microplate illumination

The UHP-T-MP series Ultra High Power LEDs feature a powerful rectangular (3:4) homogeneous beam (direct illumination without a light guide). The UHP-T-MP LEDs are available in blue, green and red wavelengths.

Application examples of UHP-T-MP series Ultra High Power LEDs in Optogenetics Add-on for Noldus DanioVision high-throughput tracking system for zebrafish larvae see here

Petri Dish illumination

The UHP-T-DI series Ultra High Power LEDs feature a powerful square homogeneous beam (direct illumination without a light guide). The UHP-T-DI series LEDs are available in blue, green, red and white.

For more information on UHP-T-DI LEDs please see here

If the application requires other wavelengths such as UV, Yellow or NIR - then other type of Ultra High Power LEDs (mosaic or LED Array) may be utilized. These LEDs need to be coupled to a 5mm light guide to create powerful homogeneous beam. The UHP-F series Ultra High Power LEDs are specially designed for light guide applications.

All above light sources provide several watts of optical power in a collimated beam over the entire surface of a the Petri Dish or microplate in continuous or pulsed modes

Application Example:
Optogenetics Add-on for Noldus DanioVision high-throughput tracking system of zebrafish larvae.

Prizmatix teamed up with Noldus to develop an Optogenetics Add-on for the DanioVision high-throughput tracking system of zebrafish larvae.
Zebrafish larvae are transparent, which offers many benefits for neuroscience research. One is the ease of applying Optogenetics stimulation – there is no need for fiber optic implants - light simply needs to shine in the right direction. This way the role of specific neurons in behavior can be examined.

The UHP-T-MP LED is integrated inside the DanioVision optical system to illuminate the microplate from the top.

A dichroic mirror is used to align the direction and divergence of the illumination beam with the angle of view of the camera. This arrangement ensures shadow-less illumination of all the wells in the microplate.
