The MAGUS Bio 230TL biological microscope is an essential tool for a healthcare laboratory, diagnostic center or research institute. This microscope is equipped with a trinocular head and light source for transmitted light (LED) observations and is suitable for the analysis of semi-transparent preparations and naturally transparent samples. In its basic configuration, observations are made using the brightfield observation technique. With the use of additional accessories, it will be possible to carry out research with additional microscopy techniques such as dark field, polarized light and phase contrast observations.
Digital camera
Digital camera with a 2 MP sensor for studying microscopic objects using the dark field or bright field microscopy technique. The camera is equipped with a color back-illuminated SONY Exmor CMOS sensor. This sensor increases light sensitivity (2350 mV at 1/30 s) and improves image quality in low light conditions. The use of lenses with 40x, 60x and 100x magnification allows you to achieve excellent performance.
The MAGUS CDF10 camera allows you to view the image of an object on a computer monitor at Full HD 1920x1080 px resolution , to take photographs and record videos in different formats. Data transfer between camera and computer is performed via a USB 3.0 interface with a data transfer rate of 5 Gbps. At maximum resolution, video is displayed at 125 fps with a smooth transition between frames. The camera is perfect for studying moving objects and can also be used for lectures and presentations.
Optics
The optical tubes can rotate 360°, which makes it possible to adapt the position of the eyepieces according to the height of the observer. Diopter adjustment is available on the left barrel. There is a vertical tube for accommodating a digital camera (not included).
This microscope uses infinity corrected achromatic objectives and the nosepiece can accommodate up to 5 objectives simultaneously. In the basic configuration, one slot remains free for adding a fifth lens. The nosepiece with its objectives is oriented towards the inside of the instrument: in this way, the user can see which objective is inserted in the optical path. The microscope offers magnification ranging from 40x to 1000x, but the upper limit can be increased up to 1500x, 1600x or 2000x with the use of additional eyepieces.
Illumination
Thanks to the LED lamp, the color temperature does not change when the intensity of the lighting varies. The 3W LED light has a life cycle of 50,000 hours and is AC mains powered.
The Abbe condenser has an available slot for a dark field slider or a contrast slider phase. Thanks to the sliders, switching between the various microscopy techniques is much quicker. The microscope is also equipped with a field diaphragm for setting the Köhler illumination. The condenser is height-adjustable and can be centered.
Focusing stage and mechanism
Moving the sample is smooth and accurate. If necessary, the mechanical insert can be removed from the stage (for example, to perform a manual scan of the sample). Furthermore, it is easier to work with a table without a positioning rack.
The focus knobs are coaxial and positioned on both sides of the microscope base, which allows the user to freely position his hands on the table. There are knobs for coarse and fine focusing (macro- and fine). Their mechanisms move fluidly, without having to apply any effort. There is a tension adjustment knob for the coarse screw and a coarse focus fixing knob (coarse screw).

The accessories additional ones expand the capabilities of the MAGUS Bio 230TL microscope, depending on specific applications. Accessories include eyepieces, objectives, dark field and phase contrast condensers, polarization instruments, digital cameras, calibration slides, etc.
