Olympus IX50 Inverted Fluorescence & Phase Contrast Microscope

The Olympus IX50 is a proven inverted microscope platform designed for the demands of cell biology and tissue culture research. Its inverted configuration places objectives below the stage, providing open access to culture dishes, flasks, and multi-well plates without disturbing living specimens. Four objectives span the full range of routine and advanced workflows: the UPlanFL 4x for wide-field survey, UPlanFL Phase 10x for standard cell culture monitoring, and LCPlanFL 20x and 40x long working distance phase objectives for high-resolution imaging through thick culture vessels — the 40x includes a correction collar for optimal performance across varying coverslip and vessel thicknesses. The 4-position fluorescence filter turret accommodates three included cubes — Blue, Green, and UV — enabling multicolor fluorescence imaging across common fluorophore channels. The 100W mercury lamphouse and dedicated power supply deliver consistent fluorescence excitation intensity. The left-side camera port supports direct attachment of a digital camera or imaging system. This unit has been professionally refurbished and ships complete with all accessories.
