Euromex BS1153-PLPHi Plan Phase Contrast Infinity Trinocular

Description

Capture high-contrast live-cell video without chemical stains using the Euromex bScope BS.1153-PLPHi Phase Trinocular Microscope clinical diagnostic platform. Operating with an infinity-corrected IOS optical system, it delivers 100x, 200x, 400x, and 1000x magnification via four Plan Phase PLPHi objectives: 10x/0.25, 20x/0.40, spring-loaded 40x/0.65, and spring-loaded 100x/1.25 oil immersion. The 30-degree inclined trinocular head features an integrated light path selector slider and a vertical 23.2 mm photo port, allowing simultaneous digital capture on a monitor while viewing through paired widefield HWF 10x/20 mm eyepieces.

Transmitted illumination is supplied by an energy-efficient 3W NeoLED lamp focused through a Zernike NA 1.25 multi-phase turret condenser with centering sleeves, built-in iris diaphragm, and selectable phase annuli. Built around a stable 6.2 kg metal frame, the instrument features an internal rechargeable battery pack for cordless operation and a 152 x 131 mm scratch-resistant mechanical stage (75 x 36 mm XY travel). Coaxial coarse and fine focus knobs feature calibrated 1.8-micron fine graduations and an adjustable safety rack stop to prevent cover slip damage.

Zernike Turret Annuli & Live-Cell Phase Contrast

Chemical stains often kill delicate living cells or distort cell wall morphology. By shifting light waves as they pass through specimen boundaries, this Zernike phase system converts subtle refractive index differences into sharp grayscale contrast. Nuclei, cytoplasmic granules, and living bacteria stand out cleanly against a neutral gray background. The included green interference filter narrows the illumination spectrum to 546 nm, optimizing phase contrast clarity across all objective rings.

Trinocular Image Capture & Cordless Mobility

The dedicated vertical photo port routes clean optical data to external digital cameras, letting pathologists record real-time video clips of living protozoa and cellular motility without disturbing eyepiece alignment. Internal rechargeable batteries free the scope from wall outlets, allowing convenient transport between clean benches and diagnostic stations, while the low-position coaxial XY controls keep hand movements relaxed during extended screenings.

• Revolving Zernike turret eliminates the hassle of swapping individual phase sliders
• Green filter and centering telescope ensure phase rings stay aligned for maximum contrast
• Internal rechargeable batteries allow cordless microscopy anywhere in the laboratory
