Lux Optical Manifold
The TDT LxM Manifold is a compact, modifiable beam filter for Fiber Photometry. Each Manifold is custom configured for standard optical sensors, like GCaMP, dLight, GRAB, and SnFR.
The LxM manifold was specifically designed for efficiency… Unlike other beam filters, TDT’s LxM manifolds allow you to easily swap the sensor filters to match the best isosbestic, excitation, and emission spectra of your favorite biosensor. Paired with either of TDT’s Fiber Photometry systems – you can also easily swap LEDs with different biosensors for a completely customizable platform as your research evolves, or to quickly switch between experiments.
In the ever expanding world of biosensors from SnFR to long wavelength dLight, RCaMP and GRAB sensors, TDT can provide custom filter configurations as your research expands.
LxM-4
Four-port system configured standard single biosensor recordings.
LxM-6
Six-port system configured for two biosensors or optogenetic stimulation and fiber photometry on the same site.
