Description
Utilizing Nikon’s industry-leading CFI60 optical system and LED illumination for both diascopic and epi-fluorescence imaging, the Nikon Eclipse Ts2 inverted microscope offers brilliantly clear images, enabling more efficient cell culture observation and documentation. Furthermore, a newly developed contrast observation method and improved operability enhances its use for routine laboratory work.
The Nikon Eclipse Ts2 inverted microscope has the following features to make its operation quick and easy:-
- High intensity and long life LED illumination
This provides the level of illumination needed for routine phase contrast work. A built in specialised lens gives uniform brightness across the entire field of view.
- Phase Contrast Observation
Phase contrast is an optical contrasting techniauie that typically uses phase contrast objective and a condenser annulus. The use of the high intensity LED light source results in clear images even at high magnifications.
- Apodized Phase Contrast (APC) Observation
APC observation is a type of phase contrast microscopy which minimises unwanted halos in thick specimens. The APC technique provides clearer details of thick samples such as dividing cells.
- Emboss Contrast- new contrasting technique
Emboss Contrast is a cost-effective optical technique which does not require costly optics. Utilizing just a bright-field objective lens and two contrast sliders, Emboss Contrast provides pseudo-three dimensional and glare-free images for thick specimens such as iPS cells which would normally suffer from halos with conventional phase contrast methods. Additionally, Emboss Contrast is compatible with both glass and plastic culture chambers, making it a very versatile observation technique.
Please note that the Apodized Phase Contrast and Emboss Contrast need extra components not included in the stated specification. Please contact us for details if you are interested in these techniques.
- Easy-to-use Mechanical Stage
The high performance mechanical stage (optional) can accommodate a wide range of flasks and cell culture chambers. The new stage design also directly accommodates well plates. In addition, the sample holder is easily removed to accommodate large flasks.
- Compact and highly stable body
Illumination modules including the epi-fluorescence light source have been seamlessly incorporated into the microscope main body, resulting in a compact and simple design form that’s also durable. The compact structure is also vibration-resistant to provide highly stable sample observations.
The camera port is located on the side of the microscope to provide unimpeded viewing of the stage even when placed inside a culture hood.
