NIGHTSEA develops and manufactures practical, economical tools for viewing fluorescence in the laboratory at a variety of size scales. Our systems are used in laboratories around the world for screening/sorting fluorescent transgenic organisms, viewing stained tissues, prescreening samples for confocal microscopy, and other applications. NIGHTSEA has the in-house expertise and equipment to solve a wide range of fluorescence challenges.

Fluorescence is a near-ubiquitous tool for laboratory work in the biotech field. Whether working with transgenic organisms expressing fluorescent proteins or with stained tissues, fluorescence is a key tool in the laboratory workflow and for visualizing results. Fluorescence microscopy equipment can be expensive and can be just another drain on start-up laboratory budgets. NIGHTSEA equipment helps laboratories expand their fluorescence capabilities with budget constraints in mind. For the cost of one high-end fluorescence microscope you can turn 15 – 20 conventional stereo microscopes into fluorescence stereo microscopes with our simple Stereo Microscope Fluorescence Adapter, with six available excitation/emission combinations. Laboratories around the world are using this for work with Drosophila, zebrafish, C elegans, bacteria, and more, for tasks like screening, sorting, dissection, and pre-screening for confocal microscopy. For larger subjects, NIGHTSEA provides flashlights and filter glasses with the same excitation/emission capabilities. NIGHTSEA also has the in-house equipment and expertise to troubleshoot fluorescence visualization challenges.
