Zeiss Fluar 10x High Performance Objective

The Zeiss Fluar 10x objective represents specialized optical engineering for demanding fluorescence microscopy applications where signal intensity and photon collection efficiency are critical at mid-magnification. Manufactured from proprietary low-fluorescence glass formulations, Fluar objectives minimize autofluorescence while maximizing transmission across UV, visible, and near-infrared wavelengths. At 10x magnification with 0.50 numerical aperture, this objective delivers exceptional light-gathering capability and resolution for fluorescence imaging while maintaining the wide field of view essential for specimen overview and navigation. The high NA for a 10x objective enables superior photon collection efficiency essential for weak fluorescence signals and quantitative imaging applications. The 1.6mm working distance accommodates standard microscope slides with #1.5 coverslips. The M27 thread mount ensures compatibility with Zeiss Axio and other infinity-corrected platforms. Fluar objectives are particularly valued in quantitative fluorescence applications including calcium imaging, FRET analysis, multi-color immunofluorescence, and live-cell imaging where consistent photon collection and minimal optical aberrations are essential for accurate measurements and high signal-to-noise ratios at mid-magnification.
