Comparison of unmixed specific fluorescence Cy3 (A) & Cy5 (B) when excited by white light LED (SOLA), PE2 (535nm & 615nm) or PE4000 (555 & 635nm). The same field of view illuminated with the indicated LED system was captured through the appropriate filter (for Cy3 & for Cy5) between 500 and 720nm. The fluorescence intensity (scaled counts/s) at emission peak wavelengths was obtained after spectral unmixing. The excitation peaks of Cy3 and Cy5 are 554 & 649 nm respectively. Despite the LAMs used with PE2 not being the optimum available, the results were better than with the white light system.
