Ethidium Bromide Filter (EtBr)
The Ethidium Bromide (EtBr) filter (50mm sq) UV
blocking band pass interference filter blocks UV and
IR radiation emitted from the transilluminator. The
filter is placed in the filter tray below the camera/lens
assembly.
The filter allows visualization of fluorophores from
580-630nm, targeting the EtBr emission peak of
605nm.
The EtBr filter can be substituted for other specific
fluorophore filters or removed when imaging non-
fluorescent media (protein gels, colony plates, etc.)
in order to produce brighter images.
