Kern Inverted Fluorescence Microscope OCM 168
Kern Inverted Fluorescence Microscope OCM 168
MSE Supplies offers a Fluorescence Microscope from KERN & SOHN GmbH. They are the ideal helper for getting started with the analysis of your optically active solutions in the laboratory.
A fluorescent microscope is often used to image specific features of small specimens such as microbes. It is also used to visually enhance 3-D features at small scales. This can be accomplished by attaching fluorescent tags to anti-bodies that in turn attach to targeted features, or by staining in a less specific manner. When the reflected light and background fluorescence is filtered in this type of microscopy, the targeted parts of a given sample can be imaged. This gives an investigator the ability to visualize desired organelles or unique surface features of a sample of interest.

- The mechanical stage including specimen holder (∅ 110 mm) means that you can work quickly and effectively. Further brackets for petri dishes are included with delivery or available as accessories
- Further options such as, for example, a selection of eyepieces, objectives, specimen holders and other phase contrast units can be integrated as accessories
- A dust cover as well as user instructions are included with the delivery
- A C-mount adapter is required to connect a camera
- Scope of application: Research and breeding of cell cultures and tissue cultures
Applications
Particularly for viewing samples in culture vessels (flasks, petri dishes, microtitre plates), translucent, thin, low-contrast, challenging samples (e.g. living mammal cells, tissue, microorganisms if necessary, Immunofluorescence, FISH, DAPI staining etc.)
