Product description

High-performance Nikon 20x/0.40 LWD phase contrast objective for advanced microscopy applications.

The Nikon LWD 20x/0.40 Ph1 is a long working distance microscope objective lens designed for phase contrast microscopy. Featuring a numerical aperture (NA) of 0.40 and 20x magnification, it enables detailed imaging of live and fixed biological samples. Its long working distance facilitates observation of thicker specimens and complex sample holders, making it essential for cell imaging and live-cell analysis in biotechnology and biomedical research.

Key features include:

  • 20x magnification with 0.40 NA for high-resolution phase contrast imaging
  • Phase 1 annulus compatibility ideal for transparent specimens requiring enhanced contrast
  • Long Working Distance (LWD) design supports thicker samples and specialized incubator chambers
  • Optimized for live-cell imaging, fluorescence analysis, and biomedical engineering applications
  • Widely used in molecular diagnostics, synthetic biology, and neuroimaging research requiring precise optical performance

This objective is critical for researchers performing phase contrast microscopy in fields such as biotechnology and biomanufacturing, where non-invasive, high-contrast visualization of cellular processes and tissue specimens is necessary. Its optical quality and durability make it a reliable component in microscope systems for advanced molecular biology and cell imaging workflows.

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.
