Olympus IX83 Motorized Inverted Fluorescence Microscope Overview
(Final microscope capabilities will depend on the modifications you request)
• This Olympus IX83 Motorized Inverted Fluorescence Phase Contrast Microscope is currently set up for Brightfield with Fluorescence and Phase Contrast studies.
• The Olympus IX83 Motorized Inverted Fluorescence Phase Contrast Microscope system includes a computer to control the Micro-Manager software and imaging software.
• The Bestscope 830EC digital camera is capable of taking detailed digital images.
• The total current magnification of this microscope is 200x (Other objectives are available).
• The fluorescence light source included is a Lumencor Aura 4 LED Fluorescence Source

Suited for the following applications as configured:
• Brightfield: Suitable for observing stained or unstained specimens, offering high contrast for general morphological studies.
• Fluorescence: Enables visualization of specific proteins, organelles, or processes using fluorescent markers, essential for cellular and molecular biology.
• Phase Contrast: Perfect for examining transparent, living specimens like cells in culture without the need for staining.
• Live cell imaging and tracking cell morphology or growth.
• Cell culture assessments like viability and confluency checks.
• Drug screening and quantitative imaging in research.
• Immunofluorescence for antigen or protein localization.

Other potential applications:
• Stem Cell Research: Monitoring stem cell differentiation and proliferation over time.
• Cancer Research: Analyzing cancer cell behavior, drug interactions, and metastasis.
• Microbiology: Observing live bacteria, yeast, or fungal cells, particularly under phase contrast.
• Neuroscience: Imaging neurons, dendritic spines, or brain slices using fluorescence markers.
• Organoid Development: Tracking the growth and organization of 3D organoid models.
• Molecular Biology: Quantifying gene expression via fluorescence reporter assays.
• Pathology: Reviewing histological samples using brightfield or fluorescence.
