Key Features

  • High pass filter at 500nm. So you will see emissions in the green, yellow and red.
  • The microscope uses transfluorescence with the source on the opposite side of the sample from the lens. Epifluorescence (with the source and the lens on the same side of the sample) is more usual on laboratory microscopes.
  • Limited brightfield capability.
  • One excitation wavelength = 465nm (blue).
  • The working distance is about 1mm, which usually requires slide mounting.
  • The head position determines the focus. There is just one focal plane, so one head position with the correct focus. The field of view is fixed at 1.17mm, but you can zoom in on your tablet or other device.
