This Parco Scientific compound microscope has a 45° inclined dual viewing head that reduces neck and eye strain. It is equipped with a tension adjustment to eliminate stage drift, while the rack-stop prevents damage to slides and objective lenses. The 40xR and 100xR objectives are retractable and spring-loaded to prevent damage to slides and objectives when focusing. It is also sealed to protect against further damage that can be caused from contact with liquid or oils. Brightfield LED illumination illuminates the specimen from below, making the specimen appear bright, but much darker than the bright background. It is an ideal microscope for any educational application or classroom, elementary to middle school level, or for basic biological use.
