Optical filters for life science
Fluorescence filters are a key component in life science fluorescence instruments and are used to selectively transmit light of certain wavelengths while blocking others. Fluorescence filters typically consist of a combination of a bandpass filter and a longpass or shortpass filter.
There are several types of fluorescence filters available, including interference filters, absorption filters, and dichroic filters. Interference filters are commonly used in fluorescence instruments because they provide high transmission of specific wavelengths with minimal spectral bleed-through. Absorption filters are less expensive but are less efficient than interference filters. Dichroic filters are used to reflect or transmit specific wavelengths, depending on the angle of incidence.

Biomedical Filters
Biomedical filters are used in microplate readers to selectively filter light based on its wavelength, allowing for specific detection and quantification of biomolecules such as proteins, DNA, and RNA.
Microplate readers typically use a variety of filters to detect and quantify the absorbance or fluorescence of different biomolecules. The filters are usually located in the filter wheel of the microplate reader, and can be easily switched out depending on the experiment being performed.
