Description
Transmitted light microscope KERN OBT 102 is a modern classroom instrument built for teaching use. Belonging to the OBT series of high-quality school microscopes from manufacturer Kern, it stands out through clear operating controls, robust construction and a contemporary design. Continuously dimmable 1 W LED illumination provides optimal specimen lighting and a long service life; optional battery operation also enables mobile deployment. This model is equipped with a height-adjustable, focusable 1,25 ABBE condenser with aperture diaphragm for effective light concentration. Precise focusing of the specimen is performed via bilateral coarse and fine drives. A broad choice of eyepieces and objectives is available. A dust cover and operating instructions are included in the scope of delivery. Application areas cover primary and secondary education, training and hobby work. Suitable samples are translucent, thin, high-contrast and relatively undemanding preparations such as plant tissue or stained cells and parasites. The unit is supplied as 1 pc with a net weight of 2,8 kg.

Questions about Transmitted Light Microscope KERN OBT, 102
What is this article?
Transmitted Light Microscope KERN OBT, 102 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.
