Nikon Eclipse Ti-U Inverted Fluorescence Phase Contrast Research Microscope
Product Description
The Nikon Eclipse Ti-U is a fully manual inverted fluorescence phase contrast microscope engineered for advanced biological and materials science research. It features a versatile mechanical 6-position objective turret and filter cube turret supporting multiple fluorescence filter sets including DAPI, FITC, Texas Red, and Cy5, enabling precise fluorescent labeling and imaging crucial for molecular diagnostics and synthetic biology. The integrated Nikon 100 Watt HBO full-spectrum fluorescence illumination system and 100 Watt halogen brightfield lamp provide stable and high-intensity excitation sources, facilitating sensitive live-cell fluorescence microscopy and brightfield contrast enhancement.
Key technical specifications:
- Microscope Base: Inverted design with dual camera ports and illumination arm for applications with thick biological samples or live-cell imaging in Petri dishes and culture flasks.
- Microscope Head: Binocular with two eyepieces enabling simultaneous visual observation and camera imaging.
- Fluorescence System: Mechanical 6-position filter turret with three included new fluorescence filter cubes tailored for molecular biology fluorophores compatible with DAPI, FITC, and Texas Red dyes, accommodating gene editing and bioprocessing fluorescence assays.
- Objectives: CFI Plan Fluor PhL and Ph1 objectives at 4x, 10x, and 20x magnifications; supports upgrade to higher magnifications (up to 1000x) and high-performance Nikon APO objectives for detailed cellular morphology analysis.
- Illumination: Nikon 100 W HBO lamp for fluorescence and 100 W halogen for brightfield phase contrast imaging, optimized for fluorescence intensity at the specimen plane verified through calibrated optical checks.
- Stage: Mechanical XY stage with smooth fine and coarse adjustments, adaptable for slide, Petri dish, or microplate formats, essential for multiparametric live-cell assays and biopharmaceutical screening.
- Imaging: Equipped with Bestscope 8.3 MP color CMOS camera, Dell laptop preloaded with Micromanager and ImageJ for image acquisition, annotation, and quantitative fluorescence analysis widely adopted in neuroscience and cellular engineering research.
- Software and Training: Remote training sessions included; software overview supports image processing essential for molecular cloning and synthetic biology workflows.
- Customization Options: Add-on modules for Phase Contrast, DIC, Polarization, motorized stages, advanced CCD/sCMOS/EMCCD cameras, upgraded fluorescence light sources (Xenon, Metal Halide, LED), and automation features to tailor the microscope for specialized biotechnology and clinical diagnostics applications.
This microscope system is critical for researchers engaged in fluorescence microscopy, live-cell imaging, molecular diagnostics, biotechnology research, and pharmacological studies. Its ability to combine phase contrast and fluorescence modalities makes it highly effective for observing unstained transparent cells alongside fluorescently labeled biomolecules. The Nikon Eclipse Ti-U supports detailed structural and functional cellular investigations necessary for bioprocessing and biomanufacturing research pipelines.
Warranty coverage, expert servicing, customized configuration, and comprehensive testing protocols ensure peak operational reliability. This pre-owned microscope is fully serviced with validated optical integrity and fluorescence intensity calibration, making it a cost-effective solution for academic and industrial labs demanding high-quality inverted fluorescence microscopy.
