Sequoia Advanced BioImaging Research Microscope
High resolution imaging is the key design principle that the Sequoia biological research microscope was built around and every aspect of its construction flows into this principle. The uncompromising optical light path is combined with high numerical aperture objectives on a rugged, all-metal frame that minimizes vibrations. Thanks to this optimized design, the Sequoia delivers the highest resolution without making sacrifices for speed or sensitivity when capturing images.
Select a camera to match your application: from cooled CCD cameras for low-light fluorescence to state-of-the-art CMOS cameras for the best combination of sensitivity and resolution. Combine this with powerful LED-based light sources for flourescence or transmitted light and observe as your specimens reveal structures you have never before seen.
