MAGUS Bio 230TL Biological Microscope

The MAGUS Bio 230TL biological microscope is an essential tool for a healthcare laboratory, diagnostic center, or research institute. This microscope is equipped with a trinocular head and light source for observations in transmitted light (LED) and is suitable for the analysis of semi-transparent preparations and naturally transparent samples. In its basic configuration, observations are made using the brightfield observation technique. With the use of additional accessories, it will be possible to practice research with additional microscopy techniques such as darkfield observations, polarized light and phase contrast.

Optical

The optical tubes can rotate 360°, which makes it possible to adapt the position of the eyepieces according to the height of the observer. Diopter adjustment is available on the left barrel. There is a vertical tube for housing a digital camera (not included).

This microscope uses infinitely corrected achromatic objectives, and the nosepiece can accommodate up to 5 objectives simultaneously. In the basic configuration, one slot remains free for adding a fifth lens. The nosepiece with its objectives is oriented towards the inside of the instrument, so that the user can see which objective is inserted in the optical path. The microscope offers magnification ranging from 40x to 1000x, but the upper limit can be increased up to 1500x, 1600x, or 2000x with the use of additional eyepieces.

Lighting

Thanks to the LEDlamp, the colour temperature does not change as the lighting intensity changes. The 3W LED light has a life cycle of 50,000 hours and is powered by AC mains.

The Abbe capacitor has a slot available for a darkfield slider or a phase contrast slider. Thanks to the sliders, switching between the various microscopy techniques is much faster. The microscope is also equipped with a field diaphragm for setting the Köhler illumination. The condenser is adjustable in height and can be centered.

Stage and focusing mechanism

Sample movement is smooth and accurate. If necessary, the mechanical insert can be removed from the stage (e.g. to manually scan the sample). In addition, it is easier to work with a stage without a positioning rack.

The focus knobs are coaxial and positioned on either side of the microscope base, allowing the user to freely position their hands on the table. There are knobs for coarse and fine focusing (macro- and micrometer). Their mechanisms move smoothly, without the need to apply any effort. There is a tension adjustment knob for the coarse screw and a coarse focus fixing knob (coarse screw).

Additional accessories expand the capabilities of the MAGUS Bio 230TL microscope, depending on the specific application. Accessories include eyepieces, objectives, darkfield and phase contrast capacitors, polarization instruments, digital cameras, calibration slides, etc.
