FAQ - Frequently Asked Questions

For this application we recommend the BRESSER Erudit DLX 40-1000x microscope in combination with a USB camera, e.g. the BRESSER MikroCam 1.3 MP. This solution offers better image quality and flexibility than a simple LCD microscope.

If you want to identify bacteria, it is usually more useful to create a culture. Microscopes are generally only sufficient to determine whether the bacteria are, for example, spherical or rod-shaped.
The Barlow lens is already installed in the eyepiece tube on many devices. It can be pulled out at the upper ridge to use the zoom function.
Possible causes:
 
  • Sample too thick / unsuitable: Use thin samples or fixed smears.
  • No cover glass or incorrect thickness: Objectives are optimized for cover glasses.
  • Condenser incorrectly adjusted: Do not open the diaphragm too far – otherwise contrast will be low.
  • Magnification too high: Rule of thumb: maximum 1000 × objective aperture. Example: With a 40x objective with aperture 0.65, the limit is about 650x.

Product information "BRESSER Science MTL 201 50-800x Microscope"

The BRESSER Science MTL 201 is a special reflected light microscope, which allows to observe non-transparent surfaces at higher magnifications (50x-800x). This solid designed instrument is ideal for working in metallography (e. g. microscopy of polished samples of metals or alloys), mineralogy, precision engineering and electronics. It is suitable for scientific research, teaching demonstration and industrial production (e.g. quality controlling). According to its purposes, the MTL 201 is equipped with a large stage (250 mm x 230 mm), which can be moved coarsely by a quick adjustment lever and finely by a transverse and a longitudinal knob. The focuser has coarse and fine drive (coaxial; circa 70 µm/ full turn). The illumination is done by a halogen lamp (20 W) with a dimmer. The light comes through the objective from above onto the sample. There are a field diaphragm, which can be centered, some filters (yellow, green, blue, ground glass) and a polarizer/analyzer combination. The fivefold nosepiece is equipped with planachromatic DIN objectives (5x, 10x, 20x, 40x, 80x). The trinocular head bears two 30° inclined ocular tubes and the photo tube. The oculars (with 10x wide field lenses) have diopter and eye relief adjustments. The photo tube allows for digital imaging, e. g. with an optional available PC eyepiece. Further optional accessories: Eyepiece (WF16x), dividing eyepiece (WF10x), planachromatic objective (50x).

BRESSER MikroCamII Microscope Camera 12MP
The BRESSER MikroCamII microscope cameras help to make photos and videos with a microscope very easy. The modern Sony® CMOS sensors give brilliant colours with very low noise and is the perfect choice for any application where true natural colours are important. The included imaging software has multiple adjustments for the capture of still images and videos. The integrated measuring* routine allows for a measurement in the camera live image. The software can be operated in the following languages: German, English, French, Polish, Russian, Turkish, Chinese. The camera housing includes the c-mount adapter thread. For use with 23.2 mm adaptations, we recommend the optional, variable 0,5x reducer (item no. 5914005). For special applications, the camera can also be mounted using the 1/4'' camera tripod thread. The BRESSER MikroCamII are equipped with a USB 3.0 port, compared to the MikroCam SP. This enables up to 8 times faster data transfers to the PC compared with the USB 2.0 standard. The camera is able to deliver more than 25 frames per second (depending on resolution, exposure time and PC performance). This is especially important when observing live microorganisms. In addition to this, the camera is exceptionally sensitive. Even in low light conditions (high magnifications, contrast methods) the camera can be operated with short exposure times.

BRESSER MikroCam II 20 MP 1'' Microscope Camera
The BRESSER MikroCam II 20 MP 1’’ microscope camera is the professional solution when it comes to microscope imaging. This camera has a big 1’’ sensor (image area 13.06 x 8.8 mm); this is the biggest sensor of the MikroCam camera range. With this camera it is possible to document roughly the same field of view as it can be seen through the eyepiece (e.g. when using a 10x / 22mm). Other models will cover only 50% or less of the eyepiece field of view. The Sony IMX183 CMOS-sensor is very sensitive and has extremely low image noise, which makes this camera especially suitable for contrast methods like dark field or phase contrast. The MikroCam Lab II software comes with a wide range of professional functions, e.g. measurements in live view (calibration slide needed), mosaic, Focus-Stacking (for improved depth of field). All automatic functions (exposure time, gain, white balance etc) can be adjusted manually as well. Due to the big sensor size the camera will not work with all microscope models. It might be possible that the optics will not illuminate the full sensor, so you experience vignetting. Usually this can be resolved by using the optional 1x optical adapter (item no. 5914001). Please note that this camera model is not suitable for the stereo microscope BRESSER Science ETD-201. It will cover only a small field of view.

Nexcope NE930 Upright Microscope
The NEXCOPE NE930 microscope offers excellent optical performance and ease of use, and is ideal for scientific tasks. Thanks to its cutting-edge optical quality, it is ideal for science and research applications, as well microbiological quality control or diagnostics. LENSES The panchromatic lenses ensure a flat field of view. The backwards-tilted, motorized 6x nosepiece is equipped with high-quality infinity lenses (4x, 10x, 20x, 40x, 100x oil). These feature an M25 thread and a parfocal length of 60 mm. The 40x and 100x lens has a spring-loaded protection mechanism. EYEPIECES The ergonomic eyepiece head can be tilted between 0° and 35°. This allows the microscope to be adjusted to the user’s seating position. The eyepieces’ large 25 mm field of view allows you to view a very wide area. The high eyepiece head is ideal for spectacle wearers. A rubber edge provides protection upon eye contact. A dioptre compensation of -5 to +5 can be set individually for each eyepiece. The interpupillary distance can be adjusted between 47 mm and 78 mm. ILLUMINATION The powerful 3 W LED has an adjustable brightness and provides optimal illumination. The brightness can be adjusted individually and saved for each lens. The swing-top condensor is automatically adjusted to the selected lens. MECHANICS + AUTOMATION The large XY stage features a robust, chemical-resistant insert made from Gorilla Glass and is moved via a combination of a toothed rack drive and a wire rope hoist. This enables exact positioning for high magnifications. The height of the control knobs can be adjusted to ensure an ergonomic setup. The tension can also be adjusted. Specimens can be conveniently changed with one hand. In addition to the coarse focus, the fine focus helps to render a very sharp image of the object. A full turn of the fine focus moves the table by 0.2 mm. The fine focus can be adjusted with one finger on the right-hand side. The table height limit helps to protect the specimens. The friction of the coarse focus can also be adjusted. The fine focus knobs are held in place magnetically and can be replaced as needed. The lenses are switched via a motor at the touch of a button. The next lens can be moved via a selection switch, or a specific lens can be selected on the front panel. The illumination and the position of the condensor is automatically adjusted to the selected lens. These features ensure ergonomic, fatigue-free and efficient performance. The exact reproducibility of the settings also offers advantages for photomicrography, as the images do not need to be recalibrated / flats do not need to be reproduced each time the lens is changed. CAMERA CONNECTION The NEXCOPE NE930 is specially designed for use with C-mount cameras. You can choose from two different adapters, depending on the sensor size and desired field of view: 0.5x c-mount adapter for sensor sizes up to 2/3’’ 1x c-mount adapter for sensor sizes of 1’’ As the adapter can be adjusted, the camera image can always be exactly matched parfocally to the eyepieces.
