FluoPulse™ Calibration Sample

The FluoPulse™ Calibration Sample is a solid fluorescence lifetime sample fix in a blackbox and greatly simplifies and streamlines the calibration processed (taking Instrument Response function (IRF) when using the FluoPulse™ system.

Compared to using the liquid solutions of either fluoresceine or coumarine to calibration the system, which requires fresh preperations at several different concentration, this solid fluorescence sample greatly save time, avoids tedious preperations and mistakes, and provided more consistent calibration between days.

The FluoPulse™ Calibration Sample provides a simple rotational mechanism to approach or retract the solid fluorescent sample from the fiber-optic patch cord, allowing for rapid signal intensity adjustment. This mechanism allows users to match the calibration signal amplitude to that of the animal signal without having to carefully adjust the concentration of liquid samples. In addition, by recording the distance in millimeters, users can easily track the calibration settings used during experiment, which is ideal for troubleshooting and experiment replication.

Currently, the sample is only available in the green emission spectrum.
