Nikon
The lab currently has 3 Nikon Microscopes (Microscopes #2, #3 & #4). These are located in bays 6 and 7.
The scopes are connected to computers via Jenoptik ProgRes software which allows users to digitally capture images through the microscope and make calibrated measurements.
Microscope #2: (Bay 7)
- Trinocular: Ocular Binoc. + Camera (Simultaneous)
- ProgRes video/photo capture & user-editable calibrated measurement
- Objectives: 5x, 10x, 20x, 50x, 100x, 150x
- Filters: Green, ND
- Bright/Dark Field
- Differential Interference Contrast (DIC/Nomarski)
- The DIC prism is installed on each objective and can't be removed, so even regular microscope images suffer from a slight double-image
- Top Illumination
Microscope #3: Eclipse Nikon L200D (Bay 6)
- Manual for Nikon Eclipse L200D
- Trinocular: Binoc. + Camera (Mutually Exclusive)
- ProgRes video/photo capture & user-editable calibrated measurement
- Objectives: 5x, 10x, 20x, 50x, 100x, 150x
- Filters: Green, ND
- Bright/Dark Field
- Differential Interference Contrast (DIC/Nomarski)
- Top Illumination
Microscope #4: (Bay 6)
- Trinocular: Binoc. + Camera (Mutually Exclusive)
- ProgRes video/photo capture & user-editable calibrated measurement
- Objectives: 5x, 10x, 20x, 50x, 100x, 150x
- Filters: Green, ND
- Bright/Dark Field
- Differential Interference Contrast (DIC/Nomarski)
- Top/Bottom Illumination
Olympus
