Available upgrades include:
Additional lasers

The ImageStream comes standard with a 488nm laser.
Up to two additional lasers may be added to increase the system sensitivity and expand the range of usable fluorescent dyes. Additional laser options include:
Violet Laser, 405nm
Catalog No. 200120
Power: 350mW
Available factory installed or as a field upgrade.
Suitable for excitation of DAPI, Hoechst dyes, Alexa Fluor 405 or 430, Cascade Blue, Pacific Blue and others. The high power of this laser allows it to be used with many dyes that would normally require the use of a UV laser.
Red Laser, 658nm
Catalog No. 200130
Power: 90mW
Available factory installed or as a field upgrade.
Suitable for
excitation of Cy5, Cy5.5, Alexa Fluor 647, 660 680 and 700;
