Stereo Microscopes for clinics and laboratories include higher quality optics without the premium prices. We have divided this category into two sub-categories, as follows;
Standard Stereo Microscopes: These include both dual power (10x/30x and 20x/40x) stereo microscopes from Omano and Meiji Techno as well as more advanced zoom stereo microscopes (6.5x-45x). We also sell Motic stereo microscopes and please call as they are not yet on our website.
Common Main Objective Microscopes: Meiji Techno's RZ Series of advanced research grade stereo microscopes include common main objectives and parallel light paths for the ultimate in stereo optics. Magnification ranges from 3.75x-300x.
A high power or compound microscope achieves higher levels of magnification than a
stereo or low power microscope. It is used to view smaller specimens such as cell structures
which cannot be seen at lower levels of magnification.
Before you start building your slides, make sure you have everything you will need, including slides, cover slips, droppers or pipets and any chemicals or stains you plan to use.
A low power or stereo microscope typically employs objective lenses of 50x or less. It is used to view specimens that are visible to the naked eye such as insects, crystals, circuit boards and coins.
A stereo microscope has three key parts:
