Description
Stereo zoom microscope KERN OZL 468 is a versatile, attractively priced all-round stereo zoom system for schools, training workshops, test laboratories and routine lab work. As part of the OZL-46 series it emphasises reliable optics, simple operation, flexibility and a stable mechanical base at a favourable cost level. Integrated LED incident and transmitted illumination ensures optimal specimen lighting, while the generous working surface delivers high comfort for training, assembly and repair stations, for example in electronics. Continuous total magnification from 7× to 45× supports smooth transitions between overview and detail. The column stand offers maximum freedom of positioning and permits removal of the microscope head for use in other modular setups such as a universal stand. With its integrated handle and sturdy mechanical stand, the OZL 468 from manufacturer Kern is purpose-built for school and workshop duty. A dust cover, eyecups and multilingual operating instructions are supplied; a wide range of eyepieces, external illuminators and auxiliary objectives is available as accessories. Camera connection requires a C-mount adapter. Application areas include in-vitro fertilisation, parasite detection, zoology and botany, tissue preparation, dissection and quality control on three-dimensional samples such as insects, seeds, boards and components.

Questions about Stereo Zoom Microscope KERN OZL 468
What is this article?
Stereo Zoom Microscope KERN OZL 468 is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes Kern for laboratory use. It sits in Stereo microscopes, inside Microscopy & histology, in Lab instruments.
A stereo microscope gives a low-magnification, upright, three-dimensional view for dissecting, for sorting and for inspecting a surface. It is not the instrument for a stained section at high power. Working distance and zoom range are the choices.
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.
