The phase contrast digital compound microscope provides phase contrast microscope system and brightfield microscope system for viewing live cells depending on your applications. It comes with a built-in 3.0MP USB digital imaging system, a 20W halogen illumination system with variable intensity, Abbe NA1.25 condenser with iris diaphragm and a complete set of phase contrast kit. It offers eight levels of brightfield magnification from 40X to 2500X. The phase contrast kit includes a phase contrast condenser, a centering telescopic eyepiece, four plan phase contrast objectives: PH10X, PH20X, PH40X (S), PH100X(S, Oil). It offers phase contrast magnification power: 100X-200X-250X-400X-500X-1000X-2500X. The USB digital imaging system captures still microscope images and live video on computer without the hassle of setting up the digital camera. The included software compatible with Windows can also be used to make measurements. You can also view and capture the images on iMac or Macbook with Mac OS. This phase contrast compound microscopy is widely used clinical, biological research and schools, specially for observing live cells.
