Zeiss Axio Incubation Microscope

Description

The Zeiss Axio Incubation Microscope is an inverted fluorescence incubation microscope equipped with CO2 and temperature control designed for live cell imaging, advanced biological research and automated fluorescence imaging. This microscope can perform varied transmitted light and multi-channel fluorescence light imaging including z-stack, tiling, time series and multi-area time series measurement and is fully equipped with color and monochrome imaging modes. The system’s Apotome is able to maintain focus over long periods of time during time series imaging. Objectives include long working distance/multi-immersion/oil immersion ranging from 5x to 100x. Compatible sample carriers include slides, petri dishes and multi-well plates.
