Description
USB microscope USB 2.0 KERN ODC 895 is a compact handheld digital microscope intended for rapid preliminary inspection and hobby or educational use. It is well suited to examining coins, plants, insects, skin samples and similar everyday specimens for hobby researchers, children and students. Magnification is simply switched between 10× and 200×, allowing common samples to be enlarged without complex setup. Eight ring-mounted LEDs provide strong, even illumination of the specimen; light intensity is adjusted via a control wheel on the cable. Connection is USB 2.0, and the cable length is 1400 mm. The package from manufacturer Kern includes the camera together with a simplified multilingual version of the Microscope VIS 2.0 Pro camera software, supporting straightforward image viewing and basic documentation. Offered as 1 pc, this portable USB microscope enables quick visual checks and introductory microscopy without a full optical stand, making it a practical tool for classrooms, workshops and home laboratories.

Questions about USB Microscope – USB 2.0 KERN ODC 895
What is this article?
USB Microscope – USB 2.0 KERN ODC 895 is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes Kern for laboratory use. It sits in Digital & USB microscopes, inside Microscopy & histology, in Lab instruments.
A digital or USB microscope is a camera with optics, useful for inspection and for a quick shared image. It does not replace a compound microscope when the method needs a stated numerical aperture and a fluorescence filter. Magnification claims on these are often a screen magnification, not an optical one.
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.
