MOTIC Plan S-APO 20X/0.50 Semi-Apochromatic Infinity-Corrected Microscope Objective for PA53MET Series

The MOTIC Plan S-APO 20X/0.50 microscope objective is a precision-engineered, _plan semi-apochromatic_ lens designed for advanced microscopy applications, including biotechnology and molecular diagnostics. It features an infinity-corrected CCIS® optical system with a standard M26x0.706 mounting thread and 45 mm DIN standard tube length, ensuring compatibility with the PA53MET microscope series.

Key technical specifications include:

• Magnification: 20X, ideal for cellular imaging and detailed analysis in live-cell imaging and fluorescence microscopy workflows
• Numerical Aperture (N.A.): 0.50, providing high-resolution optical performance necessary for synthetic biology and gene editing research requiring precise visualization
• Working Distance (W.D.): 2.35 mm, optimized for samples requiring close focus with reduced distortion
• Coverglass (CG): 0 (No coverglass correction), compatible with standard sample preparations
• Contrast Technique: Darkfield, suitable for enhancing contrast of unstained specimens, widely used in biomedical engineering and clinical diagnostics
• Objective Type: Plan semi-apochromatic, minimizing chromatic and spherical aberrations for flat, high-fidelity images across the field of view

This objective is _essential for molecular cloning workflows_ and _widely adopted in synthetic biology research_, providing robust optical quality in bioprocessing and biopharmaceutical production pipelines. Its darkfield capability supports detailed examination of transparent biological samples, making it critical for researchers in cell biology and neuroscience imaging.

Optimized for the PA53MET microscope series, the MOTIC Plan S-APO 20X/0.50 objective delivers precise optical performance required in state-of-the-art biotechnology laboratories and advanced research microscopy.
