Microscopes The Olympus BX51 WI
The Olympus BX51 WI is an electrophysiology and Intravital microscope. Available with Fluorescence illumination, IR, DIC or Oblique Illumination. The BX51WI is a versatile microscope suitable for techniques such as bright field to high speed imaging. This can be upgraded at any time making it a perfect choice for a range of budgets and experimental requirements.
Stable Y shaped base keeps the microscope rigid making it suitable for long term experiments Front focus module provides easy access minimizing the risk of unwanted vibrations. Range of Condensers including low cost bright field, High resolution DIC for maximal contrast and Oblique illumination. Large access around the objectives for easy positioning of micropipettes and electrodes.Wide range of Objectives to suit any experimental requirements.Modular frame allowing an upgrade path from simple bright field illumination to demanding imaging experiments.Compliments the Scientifica range of micromanipulators and microscope stages.

1. Bright 12V/100W halogen illumination source is ideal for transmitted light viewing
2. The frame has two built-in neutral density filters (ND6, ND25), one daylight balancing filter, and one empty slot for an optional filter-fluorescence illuminator optional
3. A light intensity, preset switch ensures reproducible lighting for photomicrography
4. Ergonomic Y-shaped frame for maximum stability and comfort, with low position focus control knobs located on both the left and right sides of the frame
5. Modular design and infinity optics system allows easy attachment of accessories without any compromise in image
6. Large 22mm field of view reduces scanning time (a superwide trinocular head and eyepiece combination with a 26.5mm field of view is available as an option)
7. UIS optics deliver bright, sharp, high-contrast images
8. The 8-position universal condenser, with either a dry or oil top lens, enables you to perform brightfield, darkfield, Phase Contrast, DIC, polarization, and fluorescence with all objectives from 1.25x to 100x
9. Fine focus control is located at the front on both sides of the microscope body. The knob on the right integrates both coarse and fine focus control
