This microscope provides phase contrast & brightfield microscope system and USB digital imaging system. A complete set of phase contrast kit can be flexibly equipped with ordinary biological microscope to be a phase contrast microscope system. The phase contrast laboratory microscope can improve the images of transparent and colorless objects, which are hard to see or invisible in an ordinary microscope. The compound Siedentopf trinocular microscope comes with trinocular viewing head, body frame, quadruple reversed nosepiece, four DIN achromatic objectives, large double layer mechanical stage, variable intensity halogen transmitted illumination system, a set of phase contrast kit and a 3.0MP USB digital camera. It offers eight levels of brightfield magnification 40X-1600X. The phase contrast kit includes a phase contrast NA1.25 condenser, a centering telescopic eyepiece, three achromatic phase contrast objectives with phase plate: 10X, 40X, 100X. The phase contrast biological microscope offers six levels of magnification power: 100X-160X-400X-640X-1000X-1600X. The 2048x1536 pixels 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. The phase contrast compound microscopy is perfect for clinical, university or institutional uses.
