Olympus CH-2 Monocular Compound Microscope with CH-M045-T Objectives 0.25/0.65/1.25 Oil Immersion
Product Description
The Olympus CH-2 with CH-M045-T is a monocular compound microscope widely employed in biological and biomedical engineering research for detailed cellular and tissue analysis. It features a robust optical system paired with objectives of varying numerical apertures:
- E A10 0.25 NA (160/-) objective for low-power observation;
- E A40 0.65 NA (160/0.17) objective for mid-range magnification suitable for fluorescence analysis;
- E A100 1.25 NA oil immersion (160/-) objective optimized for high-resolution imaging requiring oil for enhanced numerical aperture and image clarity.
The microscope includes an eyepiece CWHK10X-T/18L, delivering precise and crisp visualization critical for molecular diagnostics and synthetic biology workflows.
This model is essential in laboratories focused on live-cell imaging, clinical diagnostics, and bioprocessing applications, enabling detailed examination of microscopic biological specimens.
Note: The unit, sourced from surplus inventory, retains good cosmetic condition; however, the Y-axis stage control is currently seized and may require servicing. All optics—eyepieces and objectives—have been inspected and appear clear, ensuring reliable optical performance. A dust cover is included for equipment protection.
This Olympus CH-2 configuration is widely adopted in biotechnology research, critical for gene editing studies and biomanufacturing quality control processes demanding precision optical microscopy with oil immersion capabilities.
