Product Overview

The Olympus CK30 is a dependable inverted phase contrast microscope with a long track record in cell biology and tissue culture research. Its inverted design places objectives below the stage, providing unrestricted access to culture dishes, flasks, and multi-well plates without disturbing living specimens. Three objectives cover the core tissue culture workflow: the 4x brightfield for wide-field specimen survey, 10x phase contrast for routine cell monitoring, and the 20x long working distance phase contrast objective for detailed cellular imaging through standard culture vessel walls. This 3-objective configuration offers an excellent balance of versatility and value, making it an ideal primary or secondary station inverted microscope for busy cell culture environments. Professionally refurbished to excellent condition, this system is ready for immediate deployment.
