The rotating nosepiece allows for seamless switching between objectives, while the fixed condenser and disc diaphragm ensure clear, focused images. Its accuracy and resolution meet laboratory standards for reliable results every time.
User-Friendly for Varied ApplicationsThe microscope is designed for ease of use by students, researchers, and professionals alike. Its manual operation with mechanical focusing features provides immediate response and precise adjustments. With no requirement for a power supply and a stable, heavy base, this model suits educational, clinical, and research environments across the United Kingdom.
FAQ's of Compound Microscope:
Q: How do I adjust the focus on this compound microscope?
A: To focus your specimen, use the coarse adjustment knob to bring it into general focus, then use the fine adjustment knob for sharper, more precise images. Both knobs are located conveniently on the arm for easy manual control.
Q: What types of specimens can be observed using this microscope?
A: This microscope is ideal for observing biological specimens, prepared slides, and single samples mounted on standard 25 x 75 mm glass slides. It is extensively used in laboratories, educational settings, and clinical research.
Q: Where is this microscope best utilized?
A: With its robust design and stable base, the microscope is perfect for laboratories, classrooms, and research centers. Its tabletop mounting and manual controls make it suitable for a wide range of environments across the United Kingdom.
Q: What illumination options are available with this model?
A: The microscope uses a plano-concave mirror for adjustable illumination, allowing users to direct either daylight or artificial light onto the specimen for optimal viewing. No external power source is required for operation.
Q: What are the benefits of the metal body and scratch-resistant finish?
A: The metal body ensures lasting durability, while the scratch-resistant enamel finish protects against wear and tear, making the microscope suitable for frequent, long-term use in busy laboratory and educational settings.
Q: When should I use the oil immersion objective?
A: The 100X oil immersion objective should be used when viewing specimens that require high magnification and resolution. A drop of immersion oil is placed between the slide and lens to enhance image clarity by reducing light refraction.
