Olympus BX61 Upright Motorized Fluorescence Microscope with Motorized XY Stage and New Fluorescence Filters
Product Description
The Olympus BX61 Upright Fluorescence Microscope is a research-grade optical instrument designed for fluorescence and brightfield microscopy applications in cell biology, neuroscience, molecular diagnostics, and biotechnology. It features a fully motorized platform incorporating:
- Motorized Z-axis drive enabling automatic parfocality adjustment and rapid focus recall
- Motorized 6-position fluorescence filter cube turret with three new filter sets (choices include DAPI, FITC/EGFP, Texas Red, Cy3, Cy5) optimized for common fluorochromes used in molecular biology and live-cell imaging
- Motorized 6-position objective turret equipped with UplanFL objectives (4x, 10x, 20x) providing magnifications up to 1000x with optional higher magnification objectives
- Motorized XY stage with joystick controller, enabling precise specimen manipulation, optimal for multi-slide and microplate scanning
The microscope integrates a trinocular head with camera port and includes a color CMOS camera (8.3 MP Bestscope) interfaced via a 1x C-mount adapter, allowing capture of high-resolution still images and live video for fluorescence analysis and quantitative measurements.
Illumination sources consist of:
- Olympus 100W full-spectrum HBO lamp for fluorescence excitation
- Olympus 100W halogen lamp for brightfield illumination
The system includes Dell laptop computer with Windows 10, ImageJ analysis software, and specialized camera control software, facilitating image acquisition, annotation, calibration, multi-dimensional imaging, and quantitative image processing essential for biomedical engineering and bioprocessing research workflows.
Additional technical features:
- Mechanical condenser and flexible camera port configurations (100% eyepiece to 100% camera) support diverse imaging setups
- Extensive preventative maintenance performed ensuring optimum optical quality, fluorescence intensity uniformity, and mechanical reliability
- Warranty coverage: 180 days USA, 60 days international, with options for extended warranty and remote training via Zoom
- Customizable with additional fluorescence filters, advanced CCD/sCMOS/EMCCD cameras, phase contrast, DIC, and polarization modules
- Suitable for applications ranging from molecular diagnostics, synthetic biology to pharmacological studies and educational use
This motorized fluorescence microscope is critical in biotechnology research due to its precision automation, enabling reproducible molecular imaging and essential workflows in gene editing, bioprocessing, and biopharmaceutical production pipelines. The Olympus BX61 offers unparalleled control over fluorescence filter selection and specimen positioning, widely adopted in synthetic biology and cell imaging laboratories requiring high-throughput and quantitative fluorescence analysis.
