Inverted Tissue Culture Microscope
Inverted Tissue Culture Microscope (Product Code: SLE/M/34) is an inverted trinocular microscope used to observe living cells growing in flasks, bottles and dishes in cell culture, biotechnology and microbiology laboratories. Its objectives sit below a 180 x 150 mm stage, with extension plates for large bottles and micro-filter work. It is supplied by Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab), Ambala, India, for institutions buying cell biology equipment in India and abroad.

What Is the Inverted Tissue Culture Microscope Used For?
Cells in culture settle and grow on the bottom of their vessel, under a layer of medium. An upright microscope cannot get close to them, so the inverted design turns the optics around: light comes from above and the objective looks up through the base of the flask or dish. Technicians use it to check confluence, cell shape and contamination before passaging, without opening the culture.
The long working distance of the listed 4x/0.1 objective (18 mm) suits thick-bottomed vessels. The two extension plates widen the stage for large bottles or micro-filter work, and the low-set focus knobs let the user rest their hands on the bench during long observation sessions. Attach one of the optional cameras to the trinocular port to record growth over several days.
What to Specify When Ordering

- Camera option: micro-photographic, digital or CCD camera, if required
- Typical vessel sizes you will place on the stage
- Mains voltage and quantity

Frequently Asked Questions
Why is a tissue culture microscope inverted?
The Inverted Tissue Culture Microscope places its objectives below the stage and its light source above, so it looks up through the base of a flask, bottle or dish. Cells growing on the vessel floor can be examined under their medium without opening or disturbing the culture.
Which objectives and eyepieces does the Inverted Tissue Culture Microscope have?
The Inverted Tissue Culture Microscope has paired PWF 10x eyepieces with a 20 mm field of view and a quadruple nosepiece. The listed objective is an LWD plan achromatic 4x/0.1 with 18 mm working distance; ask us which further objectives are offered for the remaining positions.
How large is the stage of the Inverted Tissue Culture Microscope?
The Inverted Tissue Culture Microscope has a hard-coated square plain stage of approximately 180 x 150 mm. Two extension plates enlarge it for large bottles and micro-filter work, and two stage clips fit into drilled holes to hold the specimen.
What illumination does the Inverted Tissue Culture Microscope use?
The Inverted Tissue Culture Microscope uses a 6 V, 20 W halogen lamp with a spherical collector lens, continuously adjustable brightness, a field diaphragm and a pull-out filter socket. A solid-state transformer built into the sturdy base powers the illuminator.
Can cultures be photographed through this microscope?
Yes. The Inverted Tissue Culture Microscope has a trinocular head, and optional accessories include a micro-photographic camera and a digital or CCD camera that let you photograph specimens and display them on a TV or laptop screen for teaching or records.
Who supplies the Inverted Tissue Culture Microscope?
The Inverted Tissue Culture Microscope is supplied by Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd, trading as ScienceLab, from Ambala, Haryana, India, to research institutes, biotechnology colleges, dealers and importers in India and international markets.
