Description
Achromatic microscope objective KERN OBB-A1563 is an E-Plan 10 x /0,25 lens for brightfield light microscopy in teaching, routine and research laboratories. It combines 10× magnification with a numerical aperture of 0,25 and a working distance of 5,65 mm, giving a practical balance between field overview and specimen clearance. Anti-fungus protection on the optics supports reliable performance in humid lab environments where fungal growth can otherwise degrade image quality. The objective is offered as a single piece with a net weight of 0,30 kg and a gross weight of 0,60 kg in compact packaging, making it easy to stock as a spare or upgrade optic. E-Plan achromatic design provides colour-corrected imaging suited to sample screening, educational demonstrations and preparatory inspection before higher-power work. This unit from manufacturer Kern fits compatible microscope stands that accept standard achromatic E-Plan objectives and is intended for everyday laboratory microscopy workflows. Its moderate magnification and generous working distance favour quick orientation of slides, culture plates and prepared specimens while maintaining clear, flat-field observation across the usable field.
This article is part of Microscope objectives, eyepieces & optics, in Microscopy & histology.

Questions about Microscope Objective KERN OBB-A1563
What is this article?
Microscope Objective KERN OBB-A1563 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.
