ZEISS Axioscope 5 FL DIC Microscope with Colibri 3 and camera

The ZEISS Axioscope 5 FL/DIC is a highly advanced microscope system for demanding applications in research, diagnostics, and the laboratory. By combining fluorescence illumination, differential interference contrast (DIC), and classic transmitted light microscopy, this system offers maximum flexibility for a wide range of investigations.

The integrated Colibri 3 LED light source enables precise and gentle fluorescence excitation with high stability and reproducible results. Multichannel fluorescence images can be captured quickly and efficiently, with the system automatically handling exposure and channel switching.

In addition, the integrated safety shutter ensures optimal sample protection and extends the lifespan of components. DIC contrast enables a particularly high-contrast representation of transparent structures and significantly expands the range of applications.

The robust design, precise mechanics, and ergonomic operation make the Axioscope 5 an ideal solution for intensive laboratory use. This system is particularly suitable for applications in cell biology, pathology, microbiology, and fluorescence research.
