Description
Plan achromatic objective 20x is a microscope objective intended for laboratory imaging, teaching setups, and routine brightfield examination. As a plan achromatic optic, it is selected when intermediate magnification is required between survey lenses and higher-power objectives, supporting clearer field presentation for stained slides and prepared specimens. The component is supplied as 1 pc with a net weight of 0,500 kg and is listed under the LYNX product type for microscopy accessory use. Laboratories can deploy this 20x objective to complete or refresh a nosepiece set on compatible compound microscopes used in life-science, education, and quality-control environments. Plan achromatic design is a practical choice for everyday work where improved field flatness versus basic achromats is desired without moving to more specialised optical classes. Offered from manufacturer Labbox, the objective serves as a dedicated magnification step for monocular, binocular, or trinocular platforms that accept standard objective configurations. Its defined 20x power helps users resolve intermediate structural detail during screening, documentation, and training workflows. Compact packaging and a clear product identity make it straightforward to stock as a spare or upgrade part within microscopy accessory inventories.

Questions about Plan Achromatic Objective 20x
What is this article?
Plan Achromatic Objective 20x is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes Labbox 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.
