Its ergonomic Siedentopf head reduces strain and swivels 360Β° for collaborative viewing. Featuring brightfield LED illumination with a 1.25 NA Abbe condenser and a double-layer mechanical stage for precise slide manipulation, it delivers sharp, color-corrected images ideal for biological research and education. Built with a durable cast-steel body, it combines advanced optics and user comfort for long-term laboratory or academic use. ## Description The AmScope B120C compound binocular microscope has pairs of 10x widefield and 25x widefield eyepieces, a forward-facing nosepiece with four DIN achromatic objectives, Brightfield (BF) LED illumination, a 1.25 NA Abbe condenser, and a double-layer mechanical stage.The Siedentopf binocular head has interchangeable pairs of 10x widefield and 25x widefield eyepieces with 53 to 77mm Siedentopf inter-pupillary adjustment, a fixed 30-degree vertical inclination to reduce eye and neck strain, and a 360-degree rotation capability to provide a more comprehensive view and enable sharing. Dioptric adjustment accommodates individual eye-strength differences. The forward-facing nosepiece has 4x, 10x, 40xS (spring), and 100xS (spring, oil) DIN achromatic objectives that combine with the eyepieces to provide color correction of magnified images at five magnifications. The 40xS objective is spring loaded to prevent slide damage when focusing. The 100xS spring-loaded oil objective provides increased resolution over a standard objective. A compound microscope is used for inspection and dissection of specimens when two-dimensional images are desired.The microscope has lower (diascopic) Brightfield illumination that transmits light up through the specimen for enhanced visibility of translucent and transparent objects. Brightfield (BF) illumination allows the specimen to absorb light, resulting in a dark image on a light background. LED illumination provides bright, cool light for working with temperature-sensitive or live specimens. The 1.25 NA Abbe condenser can be adjusted to control the distance of the light from the stage and has an iris diaphragm to optimize the amount of light illuminating the specimen. The double-layer mechanical stage, with 1mm stage divisions, locks the slide into place and provides precise slide manipulation along the X- and Y-axis to allow coordinates to be recorded, enabling the viewer to return to a specific location on the slide. Separate coarse and fine focus knobs speed focusing. The enamel-coated cast-steel body is durable and resistant to stains and corrosion.

Types include compound, stereo, or digital. Compound microscopes use a compound optical system with an objective lens and an eyepiece. Stereo microscopes show object depth in a three-dimensional image. Digital microscopes are used to display an image on a monitor, rather than looking through a lens. Microscopes can have monocular (one), binocular (two), or trinocular (three) eyepieces, with varying magnification abilities. Magnification ability refers to the size of an image. Resolution, also known as resolvant power, refers to the clarity of the image. The interaction between field of view (FOV), numerical aperture (NA), and working distance (WD) determines resolution. Microscopes can control magnification through a fixed focus, or through a range of adjustments. They can also utilize LED, fluorescent, and mirror light sources to help control viewing capabilities. Microscopes are widely used in education, lab research, biology, metallurgy, engineering, chemistry, manufacturing, and in the medical, forensic science, and veterinary industries.United Scope manufactures microscopy equipment and accessories under the brand name AmScope.

I want to see what a healthy unvaccinated blood looks like vs. vaccinated blood that has covid in it looking spikey** A: You certainly cannot see any morphological difference between blood (RBC) vaccinated and unvaccinated with a light microscope. You CAN see WBC (leukocytes, platelets, Neutrophil, etc) with a light microscope (x1000) , but you need to know how to stain them properly or they won't look like much. Your typical RBC don't have antibodies on them except according to blood type. Memory lymphocytes would (have antibodies), but as stated above, virus particles are tiny, and you'd need hundreds of thousands of dollars for an electron microscope. **Q: Is this microscope strong enough to identify and differentiate between species of mold?** A: This is a pretty inexpensive microscope and the optics, while offering up to 2000 x magnification, are not great. Considering Galileo used optics he made himself I would say if you employ ingenuity and creativity you will be able to differentiate mold species. I've seen some amazing things with my microscope. The 2000 magnification uses the oil immersion technique for clarity. **Q: What are some tricks to getting the 25x to focus and be as sharp at the 10x eyepieces? Can you only use the 25x for the 100x with oil?** A: It really isn’t that useful to use the 25x ocular lenses, the 10x work fine, but using the 25 x reduces the field of view so much that unless you are looking at something and need a small area magnified I suggest you don’t need them. You can use it with the 100x but it won’t work well because it goes above the reducing power of the lens. Pretty much 100 x 10 is the top end of good resolution. **Q: is this dual voltage?** A: No. It plugs into a standard USA plug. You could buy and adapter though. ## Frequently Bought Together - AmScope B120C Series Student & Professional LED Binocular Compound Microscope - 40X-2500X Magnification - Features Siedentopf Head & 3D Mechanical Stage - AmScope BS-50P-100S-22 Pre-Cleaned Blank Ground Edge Glass Microscope Slides and 100pc Pre-Cleaned Square Glass Cover Slips Coverslips - AmScope PS25 Prepared Microscope Slide Set for Basic Biological Science Education, 25 Slides, Includes Fitted Wooden Case Brown --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - πŸ›’ **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** β€” Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** β€” Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - πŸ’° **No Hidden Fees** β€” All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - πŸ”„ **15-Day Free Returns** β€” Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - πŸ”’ **Secure Payments** β€” Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** β€” Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.tn/products/509200139-b120c-siedentopf-binocular-compound-microscope-40x-2500x-magnification-brightfield-led](https://www.desertcart.tn/products/509200139-b120c-siedentopf-binocular-compound-microscope-40x-2500x-magnification-brightfield-led) --- *Product available on Desertcart Tunisia* *Store origin: TN* *Last updated: 2026-06-05*
