The Olympus BX 51 Fluorescent Microscope is a versatile fluorescent microscope that has transmission, reflection, and metal halide light sources. The microscope also has a Nomarsky filter allowing for differential interference contrast (DIC) microscopy. The MPLFLN-BD lenses with semi-apochromat (corrected for chromatic aberration) are especially designed for darkfield, brightfield, DIC, polarized light, and fluorescence microscopy.
With both the stage and the nose-piece computerized, stitching in the X-Y plane and Z direction is possible. The filter turret has capacity for six filters that can be easily exchanged. The BX 51 is equipped with a DP72 high sensitivity color camera with a peltier cooled CCD detector allowing for good image capture in low light conditions. Making this microscope perfectly suited for fluorescent work in microfluidic channels.
