    Prior Scientific Provides Key Accessories for Optical Microscopes

Precision stages and focusing systems from Prior Scientific have been adopted by Mesolens as part of their ground breaking microscope systems that delivers faster, deeper, wider and more sensitive imaging than current methods.

Imaging important biomedical specimens

The Mesolens microscope makes it possible to image relatively large biomedically important specimens such as embryos, brain areas or tumors with full 3D recording of many thousands of cells. The innovative design of the microscope includes a novel apochromat lens, with a numerical aperture to magnification ratio far in excess of conventional lenses used by other microscope manufacturers. The low magnification with exceptionally high numerical aperture lens can image an entire specimen, whilst retaining sub-cellular detail throughout the entire specimen, removing the need for image stitching.

Outstanding stability and reliability

Prior Scientific's control system, motorised stage and focus motor were chosen by Mesolens Ltd because of their outstanding stability and reliability backed by Prior’s commitment to top quality and responsiveness to customer needs. The focus motor supplied by Prior Scientific enables the Mesolens microscope to provide highly accurate imaging in the Z-Axis. The leading edge repeatability and precision of the microscope stage ensures that the correct position of the specimen is obtained and maintained throughout the entire imaging process.
