Microscopes play a vital role in life science research and can be found in most research laboratories. Inverted microscopes are ubiquitous in tissue culture facilities and allow researchers to view and manipulate cells that are growing in culture, and can also be used to view specimens on glass slides. Upright microscopes are ideal for specimens on slides. When configured appropriately, both types of microscopes allow the researcher to use various contrast methods to visualize specimens including brightfield (for stained specimens), phase contrast, Differential Interference Contrast (DIC) and fluorescence.
ACCU-SCOPE features a variety of inverted microscopes and upright microscopes that are ideal for research applications. Most of our microscopes can be equipped with digital imaging solutions for image capture, analysis and documentation.
