  3. What is an inverted microscope?

    1 answer

    1. A microscope that looks up at the specimen from underneath the stage. Commonly used in tissue culture with specimens particularly influenced by gravity like cells in suspension. The objective lenses are below the stage. Jenco Model CP-2A1 (Sigma nos. Z723975 for 115V or Z724084 for 220V).

  4. What is the difference between achromatic, semi-planachromatic, and planachromatic objectives on a Jenco™  microscope?

    1 answer

    1. Each type of objective is color corrected to a higher degree than the previous one. In everyday terms, achromatic objectives afford approximately 80% of the field of view in focus from the center out to the edges. Semi-planachromatic afford approximately 90% and planachromatic afford approximately 100%. The better the color correction, the more cost.
