Fluorescent Microscope AFM-50 (AFM 50)

The AFM-50 is a high-performance fluorescent microscope suitable for advanced educational labs and research. It uses plan achromatic optics with antifungal and anti-reflection coatings. The microscope features a trinocular/binocular Seidentopf head, quadruple nosepiece, and wide-field eyepiece. A robust mechanical stage, precise coaxial focusing, and LED illumination ensure clear imaging. It supports fluorescent imaging with long-life LED lights and can adapt for bright field or phase contrast observations.

Case Study (Example Use)


In a biomedical research lab, the AFM-50 enabled high-contrast fluorescent imaging of cell cultures. Researchers used the trinocular head to simultaneously view specimens through the eyepiece and capture images with a camera. The high NA plan objectives and precise focusing revealed detailed subcellular structures. Long-life LED illumination allowed extended observation without overheating. The microscope’s flexible condenser and stage setup streamlined experiments, improving efficiency and image clarity.
