6.43:1 zoom ratio – zoom magnification from 7x to 45x
Purposely designed for professional routine inspections, the total magnification can be even extended to 135x with 20x eyepieces and 1.5x additional lens, obtaining an excellent results in this class
Ultra-flat base with Ø 100 mm disc for diffused transmitted light
A new level of ergonomy and comfort is achieved during operations, with the ultra-flat base of only 3 cm height to ensure smooth specimen movement and the Ø 100 mm for top class diffusion of the transmitted light
The longest autonomy on the market ensured by EcoLED™
OPTIKA has re-designed illumination in microscopy, once again: a special coating process on optics combined with a new, higher ratio between low consumptions and ultra-efficiency has addressed us to top brightness levels, providing over 20 years of use
Cordless use, totally independent from mains/batteries connection
All models work with or without the batteries in place and are provided with three NiMH rechargeable batteries for the longest autonomy in outdoor use (12-hour autonomy, at medium intensity)

B-60 Series
New Line of Cordless Educational Microscopes
IDEAL TO START EXPLORING!
Perfect for the first experiences, OPTIKA B-60 Series represents the most modern cordless microscope ideal for students.
Slim and easy to carry, every detail has been carefully thought out to let the user work with enhanced comfort and intuitiveness compared to any other solutions in this class.
Available in several configurations to meet the most diversified needs, B-60 is powered by a bright LED to ensure clear observations over 20 years of use and totally independent from the mains thanks to the rechargeable batteries.
The StagErase™ is something you’ve never seen before: the new, revolutionary stage of OPTIKA B-60 is coated with a special painting to reduce accidental scratches caused by the slides to the minimum and facilitate their removal.
The ergonomic design includes an arm / wrist rest support to let students be relaxed and stay relaxed when using the microscope, reducing the fatigue during use and increasing the performance as a result.

New Line of Digital Products
Compatible with any biological or stereo microscope, these HDMI cameras are equipped with the latest technology ensuring great contrast and excellent color reproduction for beautiful true-to-life.
The specimen is displayed on the monitor which can be tilted and positioned according to user preferences, sitting in a comfortable and relaxed position (especially after extensive use) for enhanced ergonomy.
Productivity is drastically improved since samples will be processed much faster than with a conventional system.
On top of that, more people can enjoy the image output simultaneously for discussion groups.

DIC Microscopy
Striking Colors & 3D Shadowed-Like Appearance
DIFFERENTIAL INTERFERENCE CONTRAST (DIC)
Differential Interference Contrast (DIC) microscopy is a contrast technique that allows transparent structures to be visualized by exploiting changes in refractive index. Unstained biological specimens usually do not alter the amplitude of the incident light, i.e., they are phase specimens.
Usually, detectors (eye, camera etc.) are sensitive only to the intensity. Hence, visualization of phase specimen or reliefs requires some special method to convert phase information to intensity information, with the high contrast and 3-D relief effect that is characteristic of DIC.
Köhler DIC (Differential Interference Contrast) on Transmitted Light – M-1198
DIC microscopy is ideal for unstained living specimens (like cultured cells, embryos, blood smears, diatoms, protozoa) and provides morphological information without the need to use potentially toxic dyes and fluorophores.
DIC is, however, often used in association with fluorescence to reveal morphological features of the specimen.
Nomarski DIC (Differential Interference Contrast) on Reflected Light – M-870
In metallography applications, images created in reflected light DIC can be interpreted as a true three-dimensional representation of the surface geometry: a clear distinction can be realized between raised and lowered regions in the specimen. It is also used for the examination of polymers and other materials.
B-810
New Upright Microscopes
B-810 UPRIGHT MODULAR MICROSCOPES
OPTIKA B-810 helps you work in a comfortable way during extended periods of use. Versatile, robust, durable and sturdy, B-810 offers premium quality optics, the state-of-the-art, exclusive X-LED3 illumination system, designed by OPTIKA, for true colors, and the Köhler diaphragm. Ready for digital imaging, B-810 will be the perfect assistant for your routine applications requiring brightfield and phase contrast techniques.
Transmitted brightfield illumination is one of the most commonly used observation method in optical microscopy, and is ideal for fixed, stained specimens or other types of samples having high natural absorption of visible light.
Phase-contrast microscopy is a particular technique applied in transparent, non-stainable, samples like culture of living cells, microorganisms, lithographic patterns, latex dispersions, fibers, and subcellular particles, revealing many cellular structures that are not visible by using brightfield.
