Description

GHEXA-16.0910
GHEXA-16.0910 is a high-performance, research-grade trinocular fluorescence microscope system engineered for demanding multi-modal imaging in advanced life science, biomedical, and materials laboratories. This powerful platform combines infinity-corrected plan semi-apochromatic objectives (4x–100x) optimized for fluorescence (B, G, UV excitation), brightfield (BF), darkfield (DF), phase contrast (PH), polarizing (PL), and differential interference contrast (DIC) capabilities. It features a wide-field PL10x/25 mm eyepiece set, sextuple brightfield nosepiece with dedicated slots for DIC/PL prisms, an extra-large 187×166 mm double-layer mechanical stage with 85×55 mm travel, swing-out condenser support, and robust upgrade-ready design — delivering exceptional fluorescence brightness, contrast, and versatility for cell biology, immunology, neuroscience, pathology, pharma screening, and live-cell studies.

Key Applications & Uses

• Multi-channel fluorescence imaging — Visualization and localization of fluorescently labeled cells, proteins, organelles, antibodies, and nucleic acids in fixed or live samples (B/G/UV channels for DAPI, FITC, TRITC/Cy3, etc.).
• Cell biology & immunology research — Immunofluorescence (IF), FISH, apoptosis assays, calcium imaging, and receptor trafficking studies in universities and biotech labs.
• Pathology & clinical diagnostics — Routine and advanced tissue section analysis, tumor marker detection, infectious disease screening, and autoimmune disorder diagnostics using fluorescence and brightfield modes.
• Live-cell and time-lapse studies — Phase contrast and DIC for non-invasive observation of cell dynamics, motility, division, and morphology in pharma drug screening and developmental biology.
• Materials & advanced microscopy — Darkfield for nanoparticle visualization, polarizing for birefringent structures (crystals, fibers), and DIC for high-contrast surface/topography imaging in materials science and semiconductor QA.
• Digital documentation & analysis — Trinocular port supports high-resolution cameras for fluorescence and multi-modal image capture, quantification, and publication-quality archiving.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

Q: Which fluorescence channels are included with GHEXA-16.0910? A: Standard configuration includes B (Blue ~450–490 nm), G (Green ~510–550 nm), and UV (~330–380 nm) excitation filter sets, suitable for common fluorophores like DAPI, FITC, TRITC, Cy3, and Hoechst.

Q: Can DIC and phase contrast be used simultaneously with fluorescence? A: Yes — the sextuple nosepiece and swing-out condenser support combined modes (e.g., fluorescence + DIC or fluorescence + phase contrast) for enhanced structural detail in live-cell fluorescence studies.

Q: What type of fluorescence light source is used? A: The standard model uses a 100 W mercury lamp for high-intensity UV/B/G excitation. Long-life LED fluorescence illuminators are available as an upgrade option for reduced maintenance and instant on/off.

Q: Is the microscope suitable for live-cell imaging? A: Absolutely — phase contrast, DIC, and fluorescence modes, combined with the large stage and stable focusing, make it ideal for time-lapse live-cell experiments (add environmental chamber for CO₂/temp control).

Q: What camera options are compatible? A: The trinocular head supports C-mount cameras (1x or 0.5x adapter depending on sensor size). High-sensitivity sCMOS or cooled CCD cameras are recommended for low-light fluorescence imaging — contact G-Hexa for recommendations.

Q: Does the package include darkfield, phase contrast, polarizing, or DIC accessories? A: The base model is upgrade-ready with nosepiece slots and condenser compatibility. Darkfield condenser, phase contrast sliders/objectives, polarizing kit, and DIC prisms/inserts are available as optional add-ons — specify requirements at time of order for a complete configured system.
