ZEISS PLAN NEOFLUAR 5X OBJECTIVE Achieve high-quality imaging with excellent flatness and fluorescence performance, featuring: 🔬 5x magnification with 0.15 numerical aperture for wide-field observation 📏 Generous 13.6mm working distance for thick specimens and manipulation 🌈 Plan Neofluar design combining flat-field correction with fluorescence optimization 🔧 RMS thread mount for universal microscope compatibility ⭐ Excellent pre-owned condition with flawless optical performance 🔧 Product Description The Zeiss Plan Neofluar 5x objective delivers an optimal balance between flat-field correction and fluorescence performance, making it a versatile choice for laboratories requiring both brightfield and fluorescence imaging capabilities. Plan Neofluar objectives feature improved chromatic correction compared to standard Plan objectives while maintaining low autofluorescence characteristics essential for fluorescence microscopy. The 5x magnification provides an ideal overview magnification for screening large specimens, tissue sections, and multi-well plates before switching to higher magnifications for detailed examination. The 0.15 numerical aperture delivers adequate light-gathering capability for moderate-intensity fluorescence signals and excellent depth of field for three-dimensional specimens. The generous 13.6mm working distance accommodates thick specimens, slides with coverslips, and allows room for environmental chambers or manipulation tools during live-cell imaging. The RMS thread mount ensures compatibility with a wide range of microscope platforms from multiple manufacturers, making this objective an excellent choice for multi-user facilities or laboratories with diverse microscope inventories. Plan Neofluar objectives are particularly valued in routine fluorescence applications including immunofluorescence, FISH, and GFP imaging where good optical performance and cost-effectiveness are both important considerations. 🔎 Typical Applications Routine fluorescence microscopy and immunofluorescence imaging Fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) applications GFP and fluorescent protein imaging in cell biology Brightfield and phase contrast microscopy of biological specimens Tissue section screening and large-area imaging Multi-well plate imaging and high-content screening 📊 Key Specifications Specification Details Catalog Number 440320 Magnification 5x Numerical Aperture (NA) 0.15 Working Distance 13.6mm Optical Design Plan Neofluar (flat-field with fluorescence optimization) Correction Infinity-corrected Thread Mount RMS (universal compatibility) Condition Excellent with flawless optics (pre-owned) Primary Advantage Versatile flat-field performance for brightfield and fluorescence University purchase orders are welcomed and accepted.
