Description
The microscope filter KERN OBB-A1183 is a grey optical filter accessory for laboratory microscopy. It is intended for instruments that require controlled light attenuation during observation, documentation and routine specimen work. According to the manufacturer data, this grey filter is compatible with the models OBF-1, OBL-1, OBD-1, OBN-1, OKO-1 and OPO-1, allowing laboratories to keep a consistent optical path across those series. Grey filtration is commonly applied when brightness must be reduced without introducing a strong colour cast, supporting clearer viewing under varying illumination settings. The unit is offered as a single piece and arrives with a net weight of 0,10 kg and a gross weight of 0,20 kg, reflecting compact packaging suited to bench storage and instrument trays. This accessory from manufacturer Kern fits educational, clinical and research microscopy environments where interchangeable filters form part of daily setup. Packaging volume is low, with a small footprint that simplifies inventory handling. By matching the listed KERN microscope families, the OBB-A1183 grey filter helps users extend existing platforms for transmitted-light work, contrast adjustment and general laboratory imaging tasks without changing the core instrument configuration.

Questions about Microscope Filter KERN OBB-A1183
What is this article?
Microscope Filter KERN OBB-A1183 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.
