This motorised upright widefield fluorescence microscope features a fast and sensitive sCMOS camera for fluorescence detection and a colour camera for transmitted light. The available objectives cover a broad range of magnifications from 1.25x to 60x.
Available techniques:
- Transmitted light imaging (brightfield, phase contrast, DIC)
- Widefield multi-channel fluorescence imaging with a fast and sensitive camera
