Product description

Olympus CKX41 inverted phase microscope with 50W mercury illumination for fluorescence and live-cell imaging.

The Olympus CKX41 is a precision-engineered inverted phase binocular microscope optimized for regular cell observation and advanced fluorescence applications such as GFP imaging. Featuring a 50W mercury illumination system, this microscope delivers intense, stable lighting necessary for sensitive fluorescence detection and biomedical research.

Key technical features include:

  • Inverted microscope design ideal for live-cell and culture observation.
  • High-intensity 50W mercury lamp illumination facilitating bright field and fluorescence imaging modalities.
  • Phase contrast optics enhancing transparent specimen contrast without staining, crucial for cellular morphology studies.
  • Ergonomic binocular viewing head for comfortable extended use during cell imaging and molecular diagnostics workflows.
  • Compact footprint (20" x 13" x 20") and lightweight (16 lbs / 8.71 kg) design suitable for benchtop laboratory environments.

Widely adopted in biotechnology research, this system supports workflows in molecular cloning, gene editing assessments, and synthetic biology experiments by enabling detailed visualization of live cells and fluorescent markers. It is suitable both as an independent instrument and as a component in integrated imaging systems for bioprocessing and clinical diagnostics. The Olympus CKX41 assures reliable performance and optical precision required in biomanufacturing pipelines and molecular diagnostics laboratories.

Why Questpair exists

Lab equipment markets are fragmented. Buyers spend weeks calling distributors, comparing quotes, and verifying supplier reliability. Sellers struggle to reach global research labs.

We built Questpair to fix this. Every supplier on the platform is verified before listing. Every quote you receive comes from a real, vetted seller. AI prepares your case in minutes, then a real specialist takes over.

We're an independent team based in The Netherlands, working with research labs and procurement teams across Europe and worldwide.

Frequently asked questions

How long does laboratory equipment typically last?

With a service contract, ten to fifteen years is normal for most benchtop instruments. Detectors and pumps are the parts that wear first.

Can I get service for older equipment?

Yes. Every verified supplier states which service partners cover the instrument, and we list that alongside the offer.

Where can I buy parts?

Ask a scientist through the request button. Parts are often available even when the instrument itself is discontinued.

What is the typical lead time for refurbished equipment?

Two to six weeks, depending on refurbishment scope and whether calibration is included.

Does laboratory equipment ship internationally?

We ship to 38 countries. Crating and customs handling are quoted with the instrument.
