2. Features
(1) UIS optical system is adopted and it brings drastic improvement in image flatness as well as
excellent clarity right to the edge, even in the case of wide field-of-view images.
(2) Use of a phase slider makes it possible to achieve high contrast images(active cell).
1) Common phase contrast ring slit(RS) is provided for 10X-40X to enable phase contrast
2) No centering is necessary for phase contrast ring slit (RS) and phase membrane in objective.
observation of 10X-40X simply by changing the objective.(when combined with IX2-SLP)
(Applicable when the CKX31/CKX41 is combined with the IX2-SLP.)
(3) Main switch and light intensity adjustment knob are located on the front of microscope frame.

(4) Specimen in various types of containers can be observed by selecting effective observation
methods.
1) Observation can be made by using various observation methods.
Observation method
Application
Brightfield observation
Phase contrast observation
Observation of suspended cells
Fluorescence observation
Observation of adhering cells
(Observation of the internal structure)
Observation of GFP appearance
(5) The working distance(W.D.) is 72mm with condenser and 150mm without condenser.
Therefore, various containers from petri dishes to roller bottle and squareflasks can be used
for observing specimens.
(6) Designed with the minimum necessary footprint, working space can be secured even in confined
space like a clean bench.
