Differential Interference Contrast (DIC)
Upright Fluorescence Microscope
Main Features:
Semi Motorized Frame.
DIC microscopy.
Six-place objective nosepiece with the DIC openings on each.
Right Hand mechanical stage.
Trinocular photography port.
Voltage: The frame has a volt switch 115v/230v. The HBO power supply is autovolt.
Motorization:
Semi-motorized frame.
Motorized focusing system for ease-of-use.
Motorized reflector cube turret.
Manually rotated objective nosepiece.
Manually rotated transmitted light filter wheels and field iris diaphragm.
Electronic fluorescence shutter with control button.
Trinocular Head - Photography Capable:
Photo port on top of head.
Capable of 100% light to eyepieces, 100% to photo port, or split.
Ability to shut out extraneous light from the eyepieces that may enter the camera optics.
Eyepieces: Pl 10x/25 pair with diopters on both. Excellent 25mm field of view. Better than the standard 23mm.
C-mount attachment for camera is included.
DOES NOT INCLUDE CAMERA. Camera is shown in images to demonstrate that one can be connected.
Differential Interference Contrast - DIC Microscopy:
DIC Magnifications: 10x. 20x. 40x. 100x.
All DIC with Plan-Neofluar Objectives.
We tested the DIC on all configured magnifications and obtained excellent textbook quality relief type images for each. Everything works as it was designed to.
The mechanical stage is the DIC version capable of rotating. This is important for optimizing the DIC images.
DIC is a microscopy technique that gives relief-like images, especially with thick specimens. The 3D effect enhances visualizing structures in thick specimens better than phase. Thick specimens normally are not imaged well in phase contrast. This microscope is capable of imaging in relief or pseudo darkfield, depending on how you adjust it.
Fluorescent Illumination:
HBO 100 Lamp Housing and External Power Supply with included 100W Mercury Bulb.
Field Iris Diaphragm.
Aperture Iris Diaphragm.
The Iris diaphragms were properly centered.
Electronic internal shutter to cut off the fluorescence illumination.
Manual shutter slider.
IR heatshield (epi-illumination light path) is properly installed in the epi port to protect internal optics.
Includes an additional IR filter on the shutter slider for added protection, This is specifically used to reduce photo bleaching of the fluorescent specimen.
Proper optical alignment was achieved in the epi illumination light path.
Arc alignment viewing aid is included.
Fluorescence Dichroic Filters:
5-Place reflector module cube turret.
Dichroic Sets: DAPI, FITC, TRITC.
Includes blockers on empty positions for UV protection.
Transmitted Illumination:
Halogen Illumination: 12V-100W.
Includes two spare bulbs.
Rotary Turret style light Condenser: 0.9 N.A.

Koehler Field Iris Diaphragm. (manually operated).
Koehler Illumination was properly achieved.
IR heatshield (transmitted light path) is properly installed to protect internal optics.
Frosted diffuser filter is properly installed.
3200 K Illumination Setting Button.
Has ability to do cross polarization to increase imaging contrast. Includes polarizer and analyzer. Polarizer rotates for adjustment of precise optical alignment.

Terms and Conditions
Objective Lenses - Condition:
All objectives have been professionally cleaned.
All are guaranteed to be free from optical defects. If any defect is found, it will be clearly noted in the ad.
Our inspection of the objective lenses includes checking for the following:
lens cracking, pitting, lens cement not intact, internal oil damage or oil seepage, glass fogging, glass hazing, stains on optical glass, mold or mildew stains, and delamination (separation of internal lenses).
Condition of Equipment:
This reconditioned microscope is complete and in excellent working order and has been completely checked out and serviced.
Technical Sales and Support:
Most offerings of used microscopes are by simple flippers of equipment who have obtained defective and rejected microscopes from labs discarding the equipment. They resell exactly what they got, as they got it, and without any technical knowledge of it. You can rest assured when purchasing from us that we are professional dealers who are well trained to service and provide technical support of the microscopy equipment. We test, repair and refurbish all equipment to excellent working conditions. We are well trained and able to give you technical advice including pre-sale and post-sale support.
Microscope Training – Setup Support and Assistance:
Concerned about how to set up and operate this equipment? Need training? We can help. Contact us for more details.
Free Application Evaluation and Recommendation:
We strongly encourage all potential buyers to first contact us with regards to their specific application. In most situations, we need to customize certain features of the microscope in order to best fit the end user’s technical requirements. We want to ensure you have the correct and optimal configuration for your application.
Fluorescence Filter Sets - Customized:
We are dealers of both Chroma and Omega brands (Made in USA) of dichroic filters. Please contact us regarding the specific fluorophores you are using so we can be sure the filter sets provided are a proper match. Incorrect matching will give you poor quality or no visible fluorescing.
Customs Duty and Tax:
Any and all customs brokerage, customs entry, VAT and duty/tax are the responsibility of the buyer.
Voltage Requirement:
Our equipment may show 110V and/or 220V external power supplies. Some power supplies are not Volt selectable. Depending on your country of final destination, and the Voltage supply, we may need to change the power supply shown in the ad to one that matches your power requirements. Contact us first with your Voltage requirement so we can be certain we have the required power supply if it needs to be changed from what is shown in the ad.
