Low Autofluorescence Immersion Oil

The ability to reduce auto-fluorescence normally associated with immersion oil makes this product well suited for fluorescence microscopy. Reduced noise (autofluorescence) results in an increased signal-to-noise ratio for better fluorescent observation. Temporal change of autofluorescence is less. Especially useful in quantitative observation of single molecule fluorescence, which is easily affected by noise. Resistance to crystallization allows it to be used over long periods of time. The refraction index is the same as other Olympus products, assuring easy integration with your existing microscopy system.

World-Renowned Optical Performance

At the microscope level, biological samples tend not to possess inherent contrast, such as color variations, when using standard brightfield illumination. As a result, a number of different ways of generating contrast have been developed. These can be split in o two parts: optical contrast methods and sample contrast methods. Whatever the source of contrast, the Olympus BX3 range and UIS2 optical components perform flawlessly, providing sharp and clear images in any contrast method.
