Bresser Science MPO 401 - Professional Polarisation Microscope

(Bresser Product Code - 5780000)

Professional polarization microscope

For professional / high end study use, for laboratory, university, technical college and high end technical school applications for the study of mineralogy, geology, biology and medicine.

Polarised light in microscope use:

As opposed to normal light, polarised light is light waves in a single plane. Polarized light reveals anisotropic objects, whose observable properties depend on the direction of light. Crystals, animal hairs, feathers, nerve fibers, muscles and vegetable cell walls, which have a preferred direction of its bimolecular, show structures in polarised light which would be hidden in the normal unpolarised light waves.

Images made by polarized light exhibit fantastic coloring and hidden cell structures. Polarization microscopes are used particularly in mineralogy, geology, biology and medicine, and show a unique insite into the way cell structures are formed.

About the Bresser Science MPO 401

In order to change the object's direction in a controlled and calculated way, the Science MPO 401 has a round, center-adjustable and full rotatable object stage with degree scale. Illumination is provided by a 20W halogen bulb lamp with dimmer, the field diaphragm (used to achieve the Köhler illumination), a 360° rotatable polarizer (for the production of polarized light), and centering implements for the objectives and the analyzer attachment (for the analysis of the polarized light).

The analyzer attachment is meant for receiving the 360° rotatable analyzer and optional available slips (Bertrand lens for conoscopy; quartz wedge, and plates used in order to get special colour effects). The wide field eyepieces (WF10x), which are also optional available, are placed at the trinocular head with an inclination of 30°. They have eye relief adjustment as well as dioptre adjustment. The images shown by them are bright, true colored, sharp and rich in details. Apart from the slips and eyepieces, which were mentioned above, the accessories of the MPO 401 contain a dividing eyepiece (WF10x), the Abbe condenser with iris diaphragm, special polarization objectives (4x, 10x, 40x retractable, 100x-oil retractable), filters (blue, ground glass) and immersion oil.
