Microscopes

Microscopy is essential to research, diagnostics, teaching, and advanced imaging across the life science, microbiology, and clinical laboratory fields. MIDSCI offers a complete selection of laboratory microscopes designed to deliver clarity, precision, and reliable magnification for both routine and specialized applications. Whether you need a compact lab microscope for classroom use or a high-quality system with fluorescence capabilities for research, our lineup supports every level of analysis.

With options that include brightfield, darkfield, phase contrast, and polarizing configurations, MIDSCI ensures laboratories can choose the right instruments for their workflow. Each microscope is engineered for ergonomic handling, optical accuracy, and long-term performance.

Types of Microscopes

  • Compound Microscopes: Ideal for cellular and tissue-based observation. Our compound microscope selections include monocular, binocular, and trinocular microscope configurations, with plan achromat and achromatic objectives for crisp imaging. Excellent for microbiology, life science research, and educational environments.
  • Inverted Microscopes: Perfect for culture work and live-cell imaging. Each inverted microscope features ergonomic controls, high-quality objective lens options, phase contrast capability, and LED illumination suited for observing samples in flasks or culture dishes.
  • Stereo Microscopes: Designed for macro-level inspection, dissection, and quality control. Stereo microscopes offer variable magnification, brightfield and optional darkfield accessories, and comfortable eyepieces for extended use.
  • Microscope Lamps and Accessories: Includes LED illumination systems, halogen replacements, microscope camera options, digital microscopes, adapters, condensers, mechanical stage upgrades, and C-mount and USB camera attachments for documentation or HDMI live display.
