Hi Guys,
Is it possible to put AOTF's in an epi-fluorescent microscope?
Yes, but you have to compensate for the loss of light.  What are you going
to use as an Ex. source?  AOTF work well with lasers but you have to
augment/compensate with HBO.

Is it possible to reconfigure this scope with AOTF's
Are you talking two AOTFs, Ex, and Em.  I would suspect that the Em light
would be too weak for an Em side AOTF (even with the most elaborate
compensation routines)

Judged by the total absence of replies to my initial question from
the commercial side, I think it's quite unlikely that any of these
companies are listening in to this mailing list.
