В микроскопе Axio Lab.A1 сделан акцент на эргономику, так как продолжи тельное использование микроскопа часто связано с дискомфортом, особенно в области шеи. С помощью микроскопа Axio Lab.A1 пользователи способны проводить исследования, находясь в удобном положении, с расслабленными мышцами шеи и плеч. Высота микроскопа может регулироваться до 50мм. Кроме того, тубус может поворачиваться в пределах от 8° до 33°.
Оптика IC2S.
Скорректированная на бесконечность система цветовой коррекции объективов от компании Carl Zeiss. Система обеспечивает превосходные высококонтрастные изображения, которые отвечают всем критериям качества.
Гарантированная надежность.
Микроскоп Axio Lab.A1 гарантирует высокое качество и эксплуатационную долговечность.
Новая дискуссионная система от компании Carl Zeiss совместима с микроскопом Axio Lab.A1.
В новой дискуссионной системе изображения для всех наблюдателей имеют одинаковую ориентацию. Указатель облегчает идентификацию деталей образцов для дальнейшего обсуждения.
Использование мягких материалов, повышающих комфортность ежедневной работы.
Элементы штатива, которых касается пользователь, покрыты мягким материалом, обеспечивающим превосходные свойства по сравнению с металлической поверхностью (менее холодный и больший коэффициент трения).
Модульное освещение.
Удобные и легкие в эксплуатации. Использование оригинального светодиодного освещения дает преимущества в виде продолжительной эксплуатации, энергосбережения и правильной цветопередачи окрашенных препаратов, сравнимой с использованием галогенной лампы.

Микроскоп Axio Lab.A1 предназначен для различных лабораторных исследований в микробиологических, гематологических и патологоанатомических лабораториях, а также в учебных заведениях.
Люминесцентная микроскопия в лаборатории
Микроскоп Axio Lab.A1 обеспечивает легкую в использовании светодиодную люминесценцию. По сравнению со стандартным освещением НВО, светодиодная люминесценция является безопасной, энергосберегающей, удобной в использовании: нет необходимости в прогреве осветителя, а также юстировке источника света. Люминесцентный блок рассчитан на размещение двух светодиодов и использование хорошо известных стандартных push and click светофильтров от компании Carl Zeiss.
Микроскопия светлого поля и темного поля
В сфере гематологии обычным подходом к диагностике заболеваний крови является подсчет клеток и исследование мазков крови. Микроскоп Axio Lab.A1 упрощает данную задачу, так как основные элементы микроскопа, такие как органы управления предметного стола, органы управления точной фокусировки и органы управления яркости изображения расположены с одной стороны, что позволяет осуществлять управление одной рукой, без ее перемещения. Метод темного поля используется для визуализации мельчайших объектов, практических невидимых в светлом поле. Это обеспечивается непрямым освещением образца, что приводит к появлению ярких структур на темном фоне. Основными сферами применения являются гематология и дерматология. Для реализации различных методов контрастирования и удобства оператора микроскоп Axio Lab.A1 может быть оснащен пятипозиционным универсальным конденсором Аббе, несущим вставки для реализации методов темного поля и фазового контраста (кольцевые диафрагмы Ph 1, 2, 3). Поляризационный контраст используется для обнаружения двулучепреломляющих структур, таких как кристаллы и волокна, отложения амилоида и т.д. В клинической практике использование поляризационного контраста помогает диагностировать подагру, выявить отложения асбеста в тканях.
