B-510POL & B-510POL-I
New Upright Microscopes
B-510 UPRIGHT POLARIZED LIGHT MICROSCOPES
Polarized light technique is used to highlight the features of various substances such as crystals, fibers, and minerals, which can aid in their identification. Generally, these microscopes are used in material science, earth science, geology, mineralogy, and petrology, yet they are also taken in consideration in bones, teeth, striated muscles, urine and gout crystals analysis.
OPTIKA B-510POL and B-510POL-I represent professional instruments for high sample throughput with a 22 mm field number and special components exclusive to this class, such as a strain-free objectives, Bertrand lens, filters, condenser, and 360° rotating graduated stage combined with the state-of-the-art, exclusive X-LED illumination system (with transmitted light only – POL – or reflected and transmitted – POL-I) and the Köhler diaphragm.
Normally the polarizer and analyzer are aligned in the light path at right angles, but when they are adjusted, the light is able to pass through the filters at different angles, allowing you to see different aspects of the specimen. As the components of a birefringent, anisotropic sample are also aligned at different angles, a rotation of the filter (or the rotating stage, if present) will generate different effects and colors, required to understand more about the specimen composition.

B-510 UPRIGHT FLUORESCENCE MICROSCOPES
Fluorescence microscopy is more than making colorful images in one, two, three or even more colors: it has become the most important phenomenon in modern biology and medicine.
OPTIKA B-510 upright fluorescence microscopes completely match and even exceed the requirements of valuable contrast delivering accurate and reproducible results.
B-510LD1 epi-fluorescence attachment is powered by a high-efficient LED and is considered by all tuberculosis diagnostic laboratories as a replacement for conventional fluorescence microscopes, requiring maintenance and centering.
With B-510LD2 a second filter is included, extending its’ application range with the identification of other fluorochromes like Rhodamine, Texas Red, TRITC among the others.
For research needs a customizable instrument is necessary, exactly like B-510FL.
It includes a four-position slider to support several fluorescence filter cubes including V or UV and OPTIKA Semi-Apochromatic IOS W-PLAN F objectives which are great to detect fluorescence, even in case of weak signals resulting very clear and visible.
These lenses combine superior performance especially in fluorescence with enhanced contrast, granting superior resolution with greater numerical apertures.

B-510PH & B-510ASB
New Upright Microscopes
B-510 UPRIGHT PHASE CONTRAST MICROSCOPES
Most of the details of living cells, such as protozoa, bacteria, molds and sperm, thin tissue slices, lithographic patterns, fibers, glass fragments and sub-cellular particles are undetectable in brightfield microscopy because the contrast between structures with similar transparency is very low and the natural pigmentation is not enough.
In these cases, B-510 phase contrast microscopes represents your perfect solution, being engineered to fully comply (and exceed) routine tasks.
B-510PH comes with IOS W-PLAN PH objectives, matching all the requirements of labs requiring good quality routinary optics, the full Köhler system which optimizes the microscope optical path to produce high sample contrast, reducing image artifacts, and the state-of-the-art, exclusive X-LED technology for long lifespan, incredibly low energy consumption and homogeneous light conditions across the entire specimen view.
