Kern Phase Contrast Microscope OBN 158

Kern Phase Contrast Microscope OBN 158

MSE Supplies offers a Phase Contrast 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 phase contrast microscope is a class of microscope used for gaining contrast in a translucent specimen without staining the specimen. One major advantage is that phase-contrast microscopy can be used with high-resolution objectives, but it requires a specialized condenser and more expensive objectives. Cell structures that appear transparent with brightfield illumination can be viewed in high contrast and rich detail using phase contrast.
