Description
Phase contrast unit KERN OBB-A1219 is an independent phase contrast accessory that includes a PH condenser and PH slider plus a single-insert PH plan objective 40× for OBL-1 microscopes. The combination supports high-magnification phase imaging of unstained, low-contrast specimens such as living cells, microorganisms and delicate tissue sections, improving edge definition and internal structure visibility without staining. Delivered as one complete unit, it has a net weight of 0,30 kg and a gross weight of 1,00 kg, with a packaging volume of 0,001428 m³ for secure handling. Kern supplies this OBB-A1219 set as a matched optical upgrade for laboratories already operating OBL-1 stands that need 40× phase contrast performance. The single-slot insert design simplifies installation into the instrument’s optical path for routine brightfield-compatible phase work. Typical use cases include life-science education, research sample screening and quality-control microscopy where clear visualisation of transparent biological material at higher magnification is essential.

Questions about Phase-Contrast Unit KERN OBB-A1219
What is this article?
Phase-Contrast Unit KERN OBB-A1219 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.
