Description
Swing-out achromatic microscope condenser N.A. 0,9/0,13 is an optical component for transmitted-light microscopy, fitted with an aperture diaphragm for controlled illumination. The achromatic design and dual numerical aperture of 0,9/0,13 provide versatile performance across a useful range of objectives, while the swing-out construction allows the front lens to be displaced when lower magnifications are required. Supplied as a single unit with a net weight of 0,30 kg, the condenser is intended for compatible laboratory microscope stands used in brightfield and related techniques. This accessory from manufacturer Kern supports even field illumination and practical day-to-day adjustment in teaching, clinical and research laboratories. Gross weight is 0,80 kg, and the compact pack format eases handling and storage. Matching the condenser aperture to the objective via the built-in diaphragm helps maintain contrast and resolution during routine specimen work. Suitable as a replacement or upgrade part where a swing-out achromatic condenser with aperture control is specified for the optical path.

Questions about Microscope condenser KERN OBB-A1107
What is this article?
Microscope condenser KERN OBB-A1107 is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes Kern for laboratory use. It sits in Microscope objectives, eyepieces & optics, inside Microscopy & histology, in Lab instruments.
An objective makes the resolution. Magnification and numerical aperture are the two numbers, and the tube length or the infinity correction has to match the microscope. An eyepiece mostly enlarges the image the objective already resolved. A mismatched objective does not become sharper by zooming.
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.
