The laboratory compound microscope provides brightfield, phase contrast and digital imaging system features. A complete set of phase contrast kit can be flexibly equipped with an ordinary biological microscope to be a phase contrast microscope system for observing live cells. The phase contrast kit includes a substage phase contrast condenser, a centering telescopic eyepiece, two plan phase contrast objectives with phase plate: plan PH10X, plan PH40X. The 3.0MP USB digital imaging system that captures microscope images and live video on computer. The included software compatible with Windows can be used to make measurements, You can view and capture the images on iMac or Macbook with Mac OS too. This phase contrast microscopy is widely used in clinical, biological research and schools.
