Nikon
The lab currently has 3 Nikon Microscopes (Microscopes #2, #3 & #4). These are located in bays 6 and 7.
The scopes have 3rd party cameras that are connected to computers via AM Scope software which allows users to digitally capture images through the microscope and make calibrated measurements.
Calibrations versus mag are indicated in the table below for all scopes.
Microscope #2: Nikon Optiphot 200 (Bay 7)
- Trinocular: Ocular Binoc. + Camera (Simultaneous)
- Objectives: 5x, 10x, 20x, 50x, 100x, 150x
- Filters: Green, ND
- Bright/Dark Field
- Differential Interference Contrast (DIC/Nomarski)
- DIC only available on 100x and 150x mags due to image quality reduction at low mags due to DIC prisms which were removed for low mags.
- Top Reflected Illumination (Episcopic)
- AMScope 14MP Cameras with calibrated software for measurements. Software available for desktop measurements. Link here.
Microscope #3: Nikon Eclipse L200 (Bay 6)
- Manual for Nikon Eclipse L200D
- Trinocular: Binoc. + Camera (Mutually Exclusive)
- Objectives: 5x, 10x, 20x, 50x, 100x, 150x
- Filters: Green, ND
- Bright/Dark Field
- Differential Interference Contrast (DIC/Nomarski)
- Top Reflected Illumination (Episcopic)

Microscope #4: Nikon Eclipse L200D (Bay 6)
- Trinocular: Binoc. + Camera (Mutually Exclusive)
- Objectives: 5x, 10x, 20x, 50x, 100x, 150x
- Filters: Green, ND
- Bright/Dark Field
- Differential Interference Contrast (DIC/Nomarski)
- Top Reflected (Episcopic) & Bottom Transmission (Diascopic) Illumination
- AMScope 14MP Cameras with calibrated software for measurements. Software available for desktop measurements. Link here.
