Product description

Olympus BH-2 trinocular compound microscope with DIC, phase contrast, and 100W halogen illumination for advanced biomedical research.

The Olympus BH-2 is a high-precision research-grade compound microscope designed for advanced applications in molecular diagnostics, biotechnology, and biomedical engineering. This model features a trinocular head supporting simultaneous visual observation and camera integration, ideal for detailed imaging workflows in synthetic biology and bioprocessing.

Key technical specifications include:

  • BH2 100W stand with a robust right-hand mechanical stage equipped with a slide holder, facilitating precise sample manipulation essential in gene editing and cell imaging studies.
  • Six-position nosepiece loaded with six SPlan objectives: 10x, 20x, 40x, 100x, plus 10x and 40x phase contrast optics for enhanced contrast in unstained biological samples.
  • Integrated DIC (Differential Interference Contrast) prism slider and NIC condenser enhance optical sectioning and birefringence detection critical for live-cell imaging and fluorescence analysis.
  • Includes DIC prisms compatible with 10x, 20x, 40x, and 100x objectives, and phase rings for 10x and 40x, supporting versatile contrast techniques essential in neuroimaging applications and synthetic biology research.
  • Equipped with a 12V 100W halogen lamphouse with blue filter and spare bulb, providing stable and bright illumination vital for detailed observation in cell biology and molecular cloning workflows.
  • Supplied with a pair of 10x eyepieces and a 1.25x intermediate tube, optimizing magnification and image clarity for biomanufacturing and clinical diagnostics environments.

This Olympus BH-2 microscope is widely used by scientists and researchers for its outstanding optical quality and flexibility, making it critical in biopharmaceutical production pipelines and essential for molecular cloning workflows. Its comprehensive illumination and contrast capabilities support a broad range of laboratory applications, from fluorescence analysis to differential interference contrast microscopy in biomedical research.

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?

Often, yes. Verified suppliers frequently work with service partners converting the instrument. If applicable, we can list servicing options 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.
