Brightfield:
The simplest of all the optical microscopy illumination techniques. Sample illumination is transmitted (i.e., illuminated from below and observed from above) white light and contrast in the sample is caused by absorbance of some of the transmitted light in dense areas of the sample. Brightfield microscopy is the simplest of a range of techniques used for illumination of samples in light microscopes and its simplicity makes it a popular technique. The typical appearance of a brightfield microscopy image is a dark sample on a bright background.

The TC-5100 & TC-5200 Series inverted biological microscopes have been designed to be versatile, modular, ergonomic, system ideal for use in research, educational and clinic applications. The TC-5100 & TC-5200 Series are well suited for wide variety of routine examination of tissue culture, precipitates and high resolution video microscopy.

The TC-5100 & TC-5200 Series microscopes deliver crisp, distortion-free, high resolution images in multiple modes of operation. A wide range of components, objectives and contrasting methods are available to suit your specific application. Available models are Brightfield, Phase Contrast or Epi-Fluorescence in the TC-5000 Series.

VIEWING HEADS
Binocular models, the TC5100, TC5300 and TC5500, incorporate the MA814 Siedentopf-type binocular head while the trinocular models, the TC5200, TC5400 and TC5600 have the MA816/10 Siedentopf-type trinocular head. The MA816/10 uses an 80/20 beamsplitter that can be engaged for photo-microscopy. (100% to eyetubes or 80% to phototube and 20% to the eyetube.) Each microscope head has the eyetubes inclined at 30 degrees with the left eyetube having graduated diopter settings. The interpupillary distance on the viewing heads is adjustable between 53mm – 75mm.
