Description
Fluorescence microscope KERN OBN 147 is a professional instrument from the OBN-14 series, designed for demanding fluorescence work on translucent, thin and low-contrast specimens such as immunofluorescence, FISH and DAPI staining. A sturdy stand and high-quality optics support reliable imaging in this class. Powerful, dimmable 20 W halogen transmitted illumination (Philips) is combined with a 100 W epi-fluorescence incident unit for even illumination and efficient excitation of fluorescent preparations. Professional Köhler illumination with adjustable field diaphragm and a centring, height-adjustable 1,25 Abbe condenser with variable aperture diaphragm complete the optical path. The large mechanical stage with ergonomic coaxial coarse and fine drives on both sides enables fast, precise specimen positioning and focusing. The filter wheel accepts up to six positions and is supplied as standard with B/G fluorescence filters. Modular accessories including eyepieces, objectives, colour filters, darkfield condensers, butterfly tube, polarisation and phase-contrast units can be integrated as needed (Kern). A centring objective for fluorescence alignment, dust cover, eyecups and a multilingual operating manual are included; a C-mount adapter is required for camera connection. Typical fields include haematology, urology, gynaecology, dermatology, pathology, microbiology, parasitology, immunology, oncology, entomology, veterinary work, water analysis and breweries.

Questions about Fluorescence Microscope KERN OBN 147
What is this article?
Fluorescence Microscope KERN OBN 147 is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes Kern for laboratory use. It sits in Light & fluorescence microscopes, inside Microscopy & histology, in Lab instruments.
A light microscope looks through a thin specimen. A fluorescence microscope adds a light source and filters matched to a dye, so only the labelled structure shows. The filter set has to match the dye's excitation and emission. A bright-field microscope without those filters cannot do that experiment.
A light microscope forms an image with glass lenses and transmitted or reflected light. A stereo microscope is the lower-magnification instrument for dissecting and for looking at a surface. Fluorescence needs a light source and filters matched to the dye. Histology is the preparation that makes a tissue readable: fixation, a cassette, a section, a stain. The objective's magnification and numerical aperture decide the resolution. The slide and the cover glass decide whether the section sits in the focal plane. Stains and dyes as substances are identified on PubChem. Papers on the methods are on PubMed.
