IOS B-510 Trinocular Phase Contrast Microscope with 1000x Magnification and IOS PLAN Objectives

The IOS B-510 Trinocular Phase Contrast Microscope delivers high-performance optical imaging for advanced biotechnology and molecular diagnostics applications. Designed for brightfield and phase contrast observation, this microscope features a fixed 50/50 trinocular head, allowing for simultaneous visual and digital imaging essential in cell imaging and synthetic biology workflows.

• Magnification & Optics: Equipped with IOS W-PLAN objectives (4x/0.10, 10x/0.25, 40x/0.65 phase contrast, 100x/1.25 oil immersion) all treated with anti-fungus coating to ensure optical longevity and clarity critical for fluorescence analysis and live-cell imaging.
• Eyepieces: Widefield 10x/22 mm and 12.5x/18 mm with dioptric adjustment, including a Walton & Beckett graticule targeting precision measurements frequently required in molecular cloning and gene editing studies.
• Stage & Focusing: Double-layer rackless mechanical stage (233x147 mm) with an X-Y range of 78x54 mm ensures precise sample manipulation. Coaxial coarse and fine focus mechanisms, with adjustable tension and a limit stop, prevent objective-specimen contact, supporting consistent imaging during bioprocessing research.
• Illumination System: Full Koehler illumination featuring the X-LED³ 3.6 W white LED source (6,300K) with brightness control provides uniform, stable light optimal for biomanufacturing quality control and molecular diagnostics.
• Condenser: Abbe N.A. 1.25 condenser with objective-coded iris diaphragm, phase contrast slider for 40x objective, and centering/focusing capabilities enhance contrast and resolution in fluorescence and phase contrast microscopy modalities.

This microscope is widely adopted in biotechnology laboratories for critical applications in synthetic biology, biomedical engineering, and molecular diagnostics, offering reliable optical performance tailored for demanding life science research environments.
