Fully Integrated Steady State FS5 V2 Spectrofluorometer

The FS5 v2, which builds on the success of the original FS5, raises the bar for fluorescence spectroscopy with its improved sensitivity, increased capabilities, and small, user-friendly design.

The FS5 v2 is designed to thoroughly characterize various samples, such as solids, liquid solutions, powders, and thin films. Its quick-exchange sample holders and advanced automation make it adaptable to a variety of industry and research needs. 

Key Features

  • Unmatched Sensitivity: The FS5 v2 features an outstanding signal-to-noise ratio of 12000:1, allowing it to detect even the faintest signals.
  • Widest Spectral Coverage: The FS5 v2 creates new opportunities for examining a wider variety of samples, thanks to its extended NIR detection range of up to 2.05 µm.
  • Advanced Automation: The most recent version of the “Fluoracle” software provides complete instrument control, from data collection to sophisticated analysis, increasing the efficiency of experiments beyond all previous levels.
  • Two Key Abilities in One Unit: FS5 v2 eliminates the need for a separate spectrophotometer by providing absorption and fluorescence spectra.
  • Comprehensive Capabilities: The FS5 v2 supports a wide range of applications, including steady-state fluorescence, quantum yield, phosphorescence, and time-resolved measurements.
