Axiovert 5

Axiovert 5 the go to routine inverted microscope for cell culture and research applications, with digital capabilities for integrated imaging through the stand or standalone imaging. Compatible with a range of contrast techniques including phase, DIC, fluorescence, bright-field etc.

Zeiss Axiovert 5 Key Specifications

Axiovert 5 microscopes feature an integrated processing unit which enhances control of inverted microscopy to a new era of smart microscopy. The integrated panel offers and optional all in one solution, without being locked in, which can optionally integrate a camera, illumination and stand into one with output via the integrated HDMI output.

Whether you choose to benefit from the full digital capabilities of the Axiovert 5, it offers a versatile solution for inverted microscopy.

• Encoded nosepiece – luminance control of each objective through the light manager, as well as measurement data*.

• Encoded turret – control of the Colibri 3 reflected light source for fluorescence imaging, for limiting spectral coverage to specific LED channels. Control of the transmitted light source automatically between turret positions, as required.

• Integrated camera control – control the Axiovert 5 via the internal computer by plugging in an AxioCam into the provided port on the microscope. This solution eliminates the requirement for added computers.

• Transmitted light – Axiovert 5 features a 10watt LED integrated into the stand that can be adjusted in intensity.

• Reflected light – External 3rd party light sources can be used or an integrated Colibri 3 for full control over reflected light.

• Compatible with contrast techniques – BF, PH, PlasDIC, DIC, iHMC, POL

• Objectives – We recommend using Zeiss LD A-Plan objectives with the Axiovert 5 for viewing denser slides, petrol dishes etc.

Imaging & Software for Axiovert 5

Axiovert 5 can be paired with a standalone camera or integrated with Zeiss AxioCam range. An AxioCam model can be fitted directly into the stand and the image outputted via the HDMI port. Images can then be saved directly to a USB stick, in this case a dedicated snap button is provided on the stand of the microscope for easy and efficient imaging of the sample.

For standalone use and AxioCam can be connected to the ZEN software for full analysis of live cell imaging or research applications.

Upgrades & Options for Axiovert 5

Configure the Axiovert 5 to you’re application with a range of options and modular attachments. Please view the exploded diagrams for specific choices.

• Phototubes – either through binocular or on the intermediate tube

• Stands – with fitted reflected light turret or without if not required

• Stages – automated or manual with inserts for slides, Petri dishes or flasks

• Filter sliders and inserts

• Reflector modules

• Condensers with options for phase contrast, PlasDIC or DIC

• Reflected light sources Integrated Colibri 3 via CAN bus on stand, Colibri 5 /Colibri 7 models and HAL 100

Axiovert 5 Digital - All in One Fluorescence Microscope

Combine the Axiovert 5 with a fully digital and integrated setup with direct video feed to an inbuilt tablet that can be replaced and retro fitted. An inbuilt tablet provides live monitor play back and camera adjustments for fluorescence work, bright field and phase contrast techniques all via the tablet. This model is available in monochrome, colour as well as custom configurations.
