Microscopes / Refractometers
Explore a range of laboratory microscopes and refractometers designed for optical observation, sample examination and measurement applications across research, education, quality control and analytical laboratories.
Microscopes provide magnified visual observation of specimens and materials that cannot be adequately examined with the naked eye. Depending on the application, the range may include compound microscopes, stereo microscopes, digital microscopes and other specialised microscopy systems for biological, material and routine laboratory examination.
Refractometers measure the refractive index of a sample and can be used to determine or estimate properties such as concentration, depending on the sample and refractometer scale. Different types are available for applications involving liquids, solutions, food and beverage products, chemicals and other suitable samples.
Laboratory refractometers may include digital, optical, handheld and benchtop configurations, with different measurement ranges and scales according to the intended application. Some models may provide automatic temperature compensation and digital display functions.
Microscopes and refractometers are commonly used in research and development, microbiology, pharmaceutical laboratories, food and beverage testing, chemical analysis, educational institutions, environmental testing and industrial quality control.
When selecting a microscope, consider the magnification range, optical system, illumination, objectives, specimen type and imaging requirements. For refractometers, consider the measurement range, scale, accuracy, sample type, temperature compensation and measurement method.
