Biological microscope MAGUS Bio D230T LCD

MAGUS Bio 230T is a trinocular biological microscope for professional observations in medical, pharmaceutical, forensic, and biotechnology laboratories and research centers, etc. It is suitable for observing semi-transparent biological specimens and naturally transparent samples: thin sections and smears. Using achromatic objectives and a halogen lamp, samples are analyzed using transmitted-light microscopy (brightfield). The microscope design allows additional accessories to be installed for using other microscopy techniques: darkfield, phase contrast, and polarized light.

Digital camera

MAGUS CHD10 is a camera with an HDMI interface. It is equipped with a 2 MP sensor and produces realistic Full HD images at a resolution of 1920x1080 pixels.
This is a standalone camera that does not require a computer connection or additional software installation. You can connect the camera directly to a TV, monitor, or projector to display an image.
The HDMI interface enables fast and stable transfer from the camera to an external screen. Video is recorded at 60 fps.
The camera combines a high FPS rate with high HDMI bandwidth. As a result, videos are bright, with no freezing or skipped frames. At maximum resolution, the image is highly detailed, moving objects are visible without errors, and motion is displayed without delay.

Monitor

MAGUS MCD monitors work in combination with MAGUS CHD cameras to form a complete imaging system for MAGUS microscopes.
The camera connects via its HDMI interface. The monitor displays images in real time. Its IPS LCD display has a wide viewing angle, high brightness, and good contrast. Even when viewed from a wide angle, the image is not distorted. The screen size is 13.3″.
The monitor can be placed on a horizontal surface using a folding stand or mounted directly on a camera or tripod.

Optics

The trinocular head has a vertical tube for mounting a digital camera. The camera is an excellent solution for creating a digital archive of your observations and can be used to transmit images to an external monitor. The optical tubes can be rotated by 360° to adjust them to the observer’s height. The left tube has a diopter adjustment ring.

The nosepiece faces inward, leaving the space above the stage unobstructed. Up to five objectives can be mounted on the nosepiece simultaneously (4 are included in the package, and a fifth slot is left empty for an additional objective). In the basic configuration, the infinity-corrected objectives provide magnification from 40x to 1000x. With additional eyepieces, magnification can be increased to 1500x, 1600x, or 2000x.

Illumination

The halogen lamp produces warm-colored illumination, which is less tiring on the eyes and ideal for those who work at a microscope for many hours. The lamp is 30 W, so the brightness and contrast of the transmitted image are high with any type of objective or observation technique.

The Abbe condenser is height-adjustable and can be centered. Illumination is controlled by adjusting the field diaphragm and iris diaphragm; Köhler illumination can also be set up for improved image clarity. The condenser has a slot for a darkfield or phase-contrast slider, making it quicker and easier to switch between different microscopy techniques.

Stage and focusing mechanism

There is no stage positioning rack. This is an advantage of the mechanical stage design, as it makes the microscope easier to use. The sample can be moved smoothly across the stage. The mechanical insert is removable (it can be removed for manual scanning).

Coarse and fine focusing can be adjusted (macro- and micrometer screws); the focusing knobs move smoothly and easily, without requiring any effort. The coarse focusing mechanism has a locking knob, and the tension of the coarse focusing screw can be adjusted. The coaxial focusing knobs are positioned for maximum comfort during long observation sessions: they are located on the base of the microscope, allowing the observer to rest their hands comfortably on the table.

Accessories

To maximize the capabilities of the MAGUS Bio 230T microscope, it can be upgraded with various accessories. These may include eyepieces and objectives, digital cameras and calibration slides, darkfield condensers, polarizers, and equipment for phase-contrast observations.
