DMi8 Inverted Microscope
Streamline your complex microscopy workflows with the DMi8 inverted microscope. The platform enables you to reliably generate high quality data with solutions that you can tailor to your research requirements and budget.
Enhanced Navigator integration
Easily switch from sample overview images to multi-channel view mode, giving your data spatial context throughout your workflow.
With enhanced Navigator integration, you can set up and perform complex multi-position experiments on a wide range of sample formats using templates for slides, dishes and multi-well plates.
Navigator combined with Adaptive Immersion technology allows you to seamlessly switch from overview images to high-resolution images using immersion objectives, without removing the sample from the stage.
Adaptive immersion technology
Patented and reliable Adaptive Immersion technology:
- Employs an embedded sensor to monitor and maintain immersion throughout your experiments.
- Enables you to use optimum water immersion objectives for live cell experiments under physiologically relevant conditions.
- Creates smoother workflows through hassle-free switching to immersion objectives.
