Olympus BX53 Upright Fluorescence Microscope with New Fluorescence Filters
Product Description
The Olympus BX53 Upright Fluorescence Microscope is a modular research-grade system designed for advanced brightfield and fluorescence imaging of biological and material science samples. It features the BX53F upright microscope base, a U-TTR-2 trinocular head with camera port, and a mechanical 8-position fluorescence light path compatible with multiple filter cubes.
- Fluorescence Illumination: Equipped with an EXFO X-Cite metal halide lamp, collimating adapter, and liquid light guide providing stable excitation for commonly used fluorochromes.
- Filter Sets: Includes three new fluorescence filter cubes selectable from DAPI, FITC/EGFP, TRITC/Cy3, Texas Red, and Cy5 sets—critical for multiplex fluorescence imaging in molecular biology and biotechnology workflows.
- Objectives: Standard 6-position mechanical nosepiece loaded with 4x/0.13, 10x/0.30, and 20x/0.50 UPlanFL objectives, suitable for live-cell imaging and detailed tissue analysis.
- Brightfield Features: Halogen illumination and mechanical condenser support brightfield microscopy with mechanical XY stage and slide holder.
- Imaging and Documentation: The trinocular head allows flexible image capture via the included camera port with image acquisition supported by computer software and ImageJ analysis suite.
- Customizability: The system supports upgrades including additional filter cubes, LED or Xenon light sources, high-end apochromatic objectives, motorized XY stages, and advanced cameras (CCD, sCMOS, EMCCD), enabling adaptation for bioprocessing, gene editing, and synthetic biology research environments.
- Applications: Widely used for fluorescence labeling in cellular and molecular diagnostics, pharmacological studies, biotechnology applications including gene expression analysis, and educational purposes.
- Service and Warranty: Fully serviced with preventive maintenance completed, verified for field distortion and fluorescence intensity at the specimen plane; 180-day continental USA warranty and 60-day international warranty included.
- Special Features: Mechanical fluorescence path, photo port splitting options (100% eyes, 50/50 eyes/camera), and remote microscope training enhance practical laboratory usability.
- Additional Techniques: Can be configured with phase contrast, DIC, or polarization techniques, supporting diverse contrast methods essential in biomedical engineering and neuroimaging.
This microscope is essential for researchers seeking a reliable, customizable upright fluorescence microscope platform, offering superior optical quality and versatile imaging capabilities critical in biopharmaceutical production pipelines and advanced molecular biology research.
