Description
Immersion oil for microscopy is a specialised optical medium supplied in a 100 ml pack for high-resolution light microscopy. It is placed between the specimen surface and the objective to eliminate refraction of the light beam and thereby markedly improve the effectiveness of the lens. The formulation is specified with a refractive index nD at 25 °C between 1,472 and 1,480 and a viscosity at 40 °C between 99 and 120 cSt, supporting consistent optical coupling under typical laboratory conditions. This 100 ml unit is suited to routine bright-field and related microscopy workflows in research, clinical support and teaching laboratories that rely on oil-immersion objectives. The product is offered from manufacturer Labbox within the LABKEM range and is catalogued among microscopy accessories. Listed net weight is 0,150 kg, aiding straightforward stock management. Laboratories can keep this immersion oil on hand for daily microscope operation wherever controlled refractive index and viscosity are required for optimal image formation. The compact 100 ml pack supports clean dispensing and convenient bench-side use without excess bulk.

Questions about Immersion oil for microscopy, 100 ml
What is this article?
Immersion oil for microscopy, 100 ml is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes Labbox for laboratory use. It sits in Essential oils & fragrances, inside Natural products & essential oils, in Lab chemicals.
An essential oil is the volatile fraction distilled or pressed from a named plant part. The species, the chemotype and a stated component, when the seller gives one, are the specification. A fragrance compound is a formulated mixture. The two should not be treated as the same bottle.
A natural product is a molecule extracted from a plant, an animal or a microorganism, or a mixture of those molecules. An essential oil is the volatile fraction. The useful specification is the source species, the plant part and, where it exists, the stated content of a marker compound. Two oils with the same common name are not the same article. Marker compounds are identified on PubChem and named by IUPAC.
