Manufacturer: Euromex — Netherlands
Overview
Extensive experience of Euromex optical engineers has contributed to the development and implementation of the BioBlue series with the finest optical components and guaranteed performance, which means clear bright images at every magnification. The modern microscopes of the BioBlue series are especially developed for educational purposes with primary focus on ergonomic and today's quality standards.
The DIN WF 10x/18 eyepieces and the semi plan achromatic corrected 45 mm DIN objectives of the BioBlue models generate a crisp high-resolution image. When changing magnification the image remains perfectly in focus and centered. The 120 x 120 mm plain stage and 130 x 130 mm stage with double layered 70 x 28 mm X-Y mechanical stage enable a 2 µm precision positioning of the specimen.

- These models have a 120 x 120 mm plain stage supplied with two non-removable object clamps
- The models for polarization are supplied with 129 mm round stage, 360° rotatable and two object clamps
CONDENSER
Height adjustable color-coded Abbe condenser N.A. 1.25 with iris diaphragm and filter holder.
DUAL ILLUMINATION SYSTEM
- 1 W white (Neo)LED: 6000 – 6500 K, ideal for standard observations with crisp, cool lighting
- 1 W halogen colored (Neo)LED: 3000 – 3200 K, enhances contrast for specific applications such as transparent objects
The polarization models are also supplied with the double LED illumination for correct color rendering (very similar to the halogen light spectrum). The EVO models are equipped with Köhler NeoLED™ illumination.
NeoLED™ ILLUMINATION
Binocular and trinocular models are supplied with an adjustable NeoLED™ illumination system for increased light output.

DIGITAL MODELS
See BioBlue Digital.
ANTI-THEFT SLOT
At the back of the microscope a Kensington Security Slot is placed, which can be used to secure the instrument from theft.
APL (Antimicrobial Protection Layer)
Using the same technology already used extensively throughout the healthcare environment in wall coatings, patient lighting, air pressure stabilization and suction liners, APL prevents the growth of unwanted microbes that can cause degradation, discoloration, staining or odors of the Euromex microscopes.
