PORT MATILDA, Pa., Jan. 19, 2011 /PRNewswire/ — QBC Diagnostics
is pleased to announce the release of the QBC ParaLens Advance, a
breakthrough product that can easily upgrade any compound light
microscope for LED fluorescence microscopy.
The ParaLens Advance builds on the proven success of the
ParaLens Microscope Attachment, which introduced the benefits of
durable, easy-to-power LED fluorescence microscopy to thousands of
labs around the world. The ParaLens Advance improves on its
predecessor with a more powerful light source, equivalent to a 100
Watt mercury vapor bulb, and a patent-pending removable filter set
arm that allows users to quickly change between objectives whenever
necessary.
LED fluorescence microscopy has demonstrated increased
sensitivity and speed in numerous research and clinical
applications, including the detection of infectious diseases such
as tuberculosis and malaria. Recently, the World Health
Organization (WHO) recommended that all labs around the world adopt
LED fluorescence microscopy for tuberculosis screening.
Craig Stout, QBC Diagnostics Vice President and General Manager
said, “The ParaLens Advance was developed to provide the benefits
of LED fluorescence microscopy to more users around the world. By
upgrading their existing microscopes, these users can meet the
WHO’s recommendation without investing in unnecessary new
equipment.”
