Leica Biomed - Reichert Inc - #3

Due to its extremely ergonomic design, the Leica BIOMED is easy to operate right from the start. Work-saving features include the coaxial coarse and fine controls with planetary gears for especi­ally sensitive focusing and the easy-change powerful 6V 20W halogen lamp.

The Leica BIOMED is equipped with a 165x160 mm mechanical stage 99b, with ball-bearing guides ensuring precise x/y adjust­ment of the specimen within a range of 76 mm x 52 mm. The stage surface is resistant to nearly all chemical substances and is easily cleaned after removing the object holder. The binocular tube 45 S with field of view no. 18 meets all requirements for this level of microscopy. The eyepieces have the great advantage that people wearing glasses can use the microscope without refocusing with the eyepiece. This is particularly good for the classroom, of cour­se, where several people work with one microscope. The BIOMED also has a 55L0.90/1.25 condenser, which can be used forthe con­ventional contrasting techniques brightfield and darkfield. The choice of 4 black-mounted achromat objectives with the maxi­mum field of view no. 18 is exactly matched to this type of con­denser.
