The Adaptable All-round Stand for Your Routine and Research Applications

With the Axio Scope.A1, Carl Zeiss is introducing a microscope for use in the life sciences which, thanks to its outstanding flexibility, offers virtually unlimited possibilities for routine applications and entry level research. Customised configurability and adaptability to specific requirements allow the microscope to be used in various fields. These include pathology, histology, cytology, microbiology, environmental research, molecular biology, plant physiology, development biology or genetics. It permits the utilisation of such different contrasting methods as brightfield, darkfield, phase contrast, fluorescence, DIC (Differential Interference Contrast) and the PlasDIC technique developed by Carl Zeiss. This is available in an upright routine microscope for the very first time.

The modular structure allows users to configure the system with exactly the functions they need for their current task. If these requirements change, the system can be upgraded at any time.Axio Scope.A1 offers other superb features: with ISCP (Infinity Space Camera Port), it has a tube-independent camera port for transmitted light applications which can be retrofitted at any time. In transmitted light, the LED illumination ensures homogenous illumination of fields of view of up to 23 millimeters with constant colour temperature. The newly developed ergo-stage permits the user to mount and lock the stage drive along the y axis in exactly the position he or she finds most comfortable and convenient. The microscope offers an extended specimen area which is adjustable for specimen heights of 0110 mm. The Vario stands are available for even larger specimens of up to 380 mm. The new N-ACHROPLAN objective series is flattened for a field of view of 23 millimeters in accordance with the ISO standard and is suitable for a large spectrum of applications.
