Beschrijving
- The OCM range stands out through its design which is ergonomic, robust and extremely stable. This design, with its large working distance, is particularly suitable for the monitoring and analysis of cell cultures, for example
- A 5W LED illumination unit ensures the optimum illumination in the bright field of your samples
- A special Abbe N.A. 0.3 condenser with aperture diaphragm and large working distance of 72 mm guarantees the very best working practise in the bright field and with fluorescence applications
- As standard, the OCM range is fitted with a trinocular eyepiece tube
- The mechanical stage including specimen holder (? 110 mm) means that you can work quickly and effectively. Further brackets for petri dishes are included with delivery or available as accessories
- Further options such as, for example, a selection of eyepieces, objectives, specimen holders and other phase contrast units can be integrated as accessories (see accessories)

Questions about Inverted Microscope KERN OCM 162
What is this article?
Inverted Microscope KERN OCM 162 is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes KERN for laboratory use. It sits in Light & fluorescence microscopes, inside Microscopy & histology, in Instrumenten.
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.
