Description
Blue microscope filter KERN OBB-A1173 is a dedicated optical accessory for microscopy setups that require a blue filter in the illumination path. It is intended to support contrast and colour balance during routine observation, giving operators a simple way to adapt lighting conditions to the specimen and the chosen optical configuration. The product is delivered as a single piece; net weight is 0,10 kg and gross weight is 0,20 kg, which suits organised storage with other microscope spare parts. According to the manufacturer data it is suitable for the OPE 118 instrument, so laboratories and teaching rooms that run this model can source a matching blue filter without improvising non-specified components. The filter comes from manufacturer Kern and belongs to the microscopy accessories category rather than to chemical consumables. Compact outer packaging helps keep drawers and service kits tidy. Quality-control, education and general laboratory environments that rely on OPE 118 stands can use this blue filter to maintain a uniform optical setup, to replace a missing or damaged filter, or to equip an additional instrument of the same type with the corresponding blue filter option.

Questions about Microscope Filter KERN OBB-A1173
What is this article?
Microscope Filter KERN OBB-A1173 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.
