Oxion
Microscopes
for
Life Sciences
ENGLISH
The Oxion series has been designed with all kind of Life Sciences applications and great
durability in mind. This resulted in a modern, robust and high level microscope for everyday
use, equipped with excellent optical and mechanical components. Specifi c attention to
production methods resulted also in an excellent price/performance ratio
The Oxion features an unique swiveling
concept allowing the viewing height to be
easily matched with the user height and compared to traditional microscopes - add
approximately 40 mm extra viewing height.
The Siedentopf tubes have standard HWF
plan 10x eyepieces with 22 mm fi eld of view
and adjustable diopter. The interpupillary
distance is 50 to 75 mm.
Eyepieces can be secured to the tubes.
The Oxion head has an ergonomic viewing
angle of 30°.
The Oxion is available in various confi gurations suitable for Life Sciences applications in laboratories,
high schools and universities but also for routine medical applications and veterinary medicine.
Besides the bright fi eld contrast method, confi gurations with phase contrast, dark fi eld contrast,
simple polarization or fl uorescence illumination can be used.
Infi nity color corrected
optical system
The Oxion can also be equipped with a heating
stage which can be set up to 50° Celsius by a
real PID controller. Higher temperatures can be
achieved on special request.
The 3 Watt adjustable LED illumination offers
the user a comfortable illumination with a very
constant color temperature and a very long
term usage. The Koehler illumination enables
highest contrast and maximum achievable
resolving power of the optics. Besides low
energy consumption and no heating, the highpowered LED has a long operating lifetime.
The 100 Watt mercury-vapor light source
enables a large range of wavelengths to be
used for various fl uorophores. The vertical
light refl ected illuminator can accept up to
4 cubes at the same time for appropriate
exciter and emitter fi lters.
A microscope with well conceived details
The computer optimized design of the Oxion
ensures high stability and durability which
results in an advanced ergonomical all-round
microscope. Below the head, the microscope
features an opening for insertion of an
optional polarizer. A handgrip at the back
of the stand allows easy transportation of
the microscope.
The large 150 x 140 mm table with 76 x
50 mm translation mechanical stage and a
reversed nosepiece for up to 5 objectives
makes the Oxion suitable for advanced
laboratory work. Ergonomically placed
adjustment knobs minimize fatigue during
long microscopy sessions. The general shape
of the stand has been specifi cally designed
to match today’s standard. The height
adjustable Abbe N.A. 1.25 condenser accepts
sliders for economical phase contrast and
dark fi eld applications.
Contrast methods for a large range of applications
Brightfield
A large scale of applications is covered by
the common light-transmitted bright field
contrast method. Besides the standard plan
achromatic 4x, 10x, 20x, S40x, S60x, S100x oil
bright field, the Oxion can also be engaged
with newly designed high contrast plan
semi-apochromatic objectives.
The improved correction of these objectives
results in lower aberrations and improved
resolving power for the complete optical
system.
All objectives are treated with a multi-layer
anti-reflection coating and are anti fungus.
Phase contrast
The observation of living cells and specimens
with poor contrast is made possible by the
use of the phase contrast method. Two
different phase contrast equipments are
available. All phase plan contrasts objectives
can be used with both systems.
A first economical way is to use sliders, each
equipped with phase contrast rings. The first
slider features phase rings for 10x and S40x
and the second for 20x and S100x plan phase
contrast objectives. These phase contrast
sliders are simply inserted into the standard
condenser of the Oxion.
The second method is to use one of the
2 available Zernike phase contrast disc
condensers. The first Zernike disc condenser
allows bright field contrast and phase
contrast for 10x, 20x, S40x and S100x phase
plan objectives. The second one allows
bright field and phase plan contrast for 10x,
S40x, S100x phase plan objectives and also
features a dark field contrast method for
magnifications up to 400x. Both condensers
are delivered with a telescope to adjust the
phase contrast rings.
Fluorescence
Today, fluorescence microscopy offers a
faster and reliable identification of infectious
diseases and allows observation of complex
interactions in unstained living cells. The
high contrast plan semi-apochromatic
Fluarex 4x, 10x, 20x, S40x and S100x oil
objectives combined with the 22 mm
eyepieces of the Oxion, offer the necessary
resolution and field of view for fast
detection of small pathogens. A 100 Watt
mercury –vapor light source combined with
the high performance fluorescence filters
produce excellent contrasted images with
an outstanding signal-to-noise ratio.
