PHILIPPINES POLARIZING MICROSCOPES

Recently the need for Polarizing Microscopes has increased.  Government organizations as well as private institutions, freelancers and practitioners advanced their field of study using polarized light microscopes (PLM). 

The study, analysis and the identifications of the optical properties of rocks and minerals on microscopes slides are the main applications of Polarizing or Petrography (rock imaging) microscopes.

Geological studies become more enhancing because of the presence of these geological microscopes.  Geologists who study the solid matter that constitute the earth, it’s physical properties, history and the processes that shapes the earth are more confident,  accurate and conclusive in establishing their studies.

A welcome development in the Philippines is the advancement in geological studies, mining, oil, and petroleum explorations.  The University of the Philippines instituted our locally breed yet internationally competent geologists who uses our Polarizing microscopes in their fields of concern.  The vision of the Philippine government of having a sufficient supply of fuel and energy in the coming years, by conducting oil and petroleum explorations, was made feasible by the technology of our polarized light microscopes.

The most commonly used geological microscopes are polarizing, petrographic and ore microscopes.  Polarizing microscopes are preferred because its main application is in the study of rocks and minerals.  Polarizing microscopes provides light from the bottom and transmit it through the thin section of birefringent specimen on the microscopes slides.

Our microscopes are equipped with Bertrand lens system with a polarizer, an analyzer and compensator plates such as gypsum, mica and quartz which allows sample to be studied in a cross-polarized light or in a plane polarized light.  Some other functions are: identifying specimen in biological and medical research, viewing urine crystals, biochemistry, oil and petroleum exploration and geological engineering.

These are some of the reputable institutions that were benefitted by our products:  University Of The Philippines Diliman Diliman  National Institute of Geological Sciences (NIGS), Philippines National Museum, Philippines National Oil Corporation (PNOC), Free Port Mc Moran Exploration, EXXOMOBIL Exploration and Production, Philippines and the Association of Filipinos in the Advancement of Geosciences, Inc.

The rise in criminalities and the establishments of Schools in Criminology around the country makes Forensic Science more interesting and exciting. This field of discipline mainly used Forensic Comparison Microscopes for applications such as: ballistics, handwriting specimen, finger prints, hairs, fibers and other material evidences which will help solve the crime by giving factual evidences linking to a suspect. Some other applications such as; document examination, fire investigation and arson get bests results from Forensic Comparison Microscopes.Forensic microscopy innovate the field of Forensic Science. Microscopy, is the science of using microscopes on several fields of studies. With the aid of microscopes a person can be proven guilty or not on the criminal charges against him. Innocent people can be freed and those that are guilty be put behind bars. The most important benefit in using microscopes especially in law enforcement is that of carrying out true and accurate judgment.

Forensic Comparison Microscope is commonly used for solving criminalities. Schools, colleges and universities and other scientific fields including archeology and paleontology also use comparison microscopes.

Forensic Comparison Microscopes use two objects or samples to be compared side by side, connected by an optical bridge in which the user can view both the specimens through the eyepiece. The images from the Forensic Comparative Microscopes can be seen simultaneously in a computer monitor or TV screen via CCD dual camera.  Viewing the samples simultaneously allow the user to compare if the two specimens in a split-screen image to be different or identical.

Ballistics investigations conducted in the crime laboratories require comparison and analysis in  bullets, bullet casings and firing pins. Forensic Comparison Microscopes are use inorder to have an accurate comparison and conclusions on the subject under examination.

Forensic evidences collected in the crime scene are called trace evidence. Two or more objects that come into contact left traces of themselves and among others. Trace evidence is too small for the naked eye to compare and examine without magnification. Fibers, tool marks, hair, skin cells, body fluid samples, soil, ink and other tiny samples requires magnification for a more accurate result.

Great Microscopes has all the quality and efficient microscopes for every need that comes into the user.

What are the microscopes which are excellent for student use? Great Microscopes have the student biological microscopes and the student low power microscopes for students who are interested in having a microscope by their side. Further, student biological and student low power microscopes are common equipment in microscope slides which contain biological samples. Prepared microscope slides give a very fast way to learn more about biology and in how to use the microscope. Student high power microscopes, on the other hand, contain optional eyepieces so you can view specimens in a more comfortable manner. Student microscopes come either as binocular or monocular, that is with two eyepieces or one eyepieces. With the student biological, high power, and low power microscopes as your choice, you have the say on which one is truly applicable for your use.

For professionals, like doctors, veterinarians, and physicians, Great Microscopes have here professional biological microscopes. This is neither your ordinary type nor the student type of microscope that you always see in schools. The professional biological microscopes are usually sold in high power and greater PLAN objectives. This is why this kind of microscope is best as hospital equipment and for medical functions.

For teachers, Great Microscopes offer right teaching microscope for you. Teaching microscopes are microscopes perfect for teaching and for classroom instruction. Teaching microscopes are highly suggested for five people who want to view the specimen all together. It is also effective in viewing in clear and bright biological images since these microscopes contain premium optics.

All of the microscopes that Great Microscopes sell either apply the darkfield, brightfield, and phase contrast techniques in a microscopy. The darkfield illumination lets the viewer see the special features of the blood which are not always viewed in phase contrast and brightfield illumination.

A phase contrast microscope is widely used to check specimens like the biological tissues. It lets you to clearly see transparent blood cells to appear in contrast to the background of the microscope. Phase contrast microscopy is used in blood cell analysis so the user can clearly understand and look at the effects of the general contour of blood cells which may be not applied in other cell techniques.

Other than these types of microscopes, Great Microscopes also offer other kinds of microscopes including the inverted tissue culture microscope, epi-fluorescence microscopes, and embryo transplant microscopes. Inverted tissue culture microscope contains objective lenses and condensers which allows you to observe samples in the bottom of the Petri culture dish. On the other hand, epi-fluorescence microscopes are include inverted and upright models which are in demand in the field in biology, cytology, histology, hematology, oncology, genetics, and other topics in biomedical research. The embryo transplant microscope, further, is a nice choice for studying embryo transplant since it offers a three dimensional image with deep perception, thus, you can see a very accurate analysis about the status of the embryo.

If your school or office is need of quality microscope, Great Microscopes can offer you microscopes which are not only efficient and high tech, but also microscopes which are definitely at reach by ordinary Filipino which will not break the pockets of the consumers and which also depends on your budget.

High-power microscopes can view specimens at greater magnifications ranging from 40 times to as much as 1600 times. These are particularly useful in viewing micro-structures such as cells, microorganisms, crystalline formations, fibers and so much more. Choose between our different models of high power compound biological microscopes used for many applications in scientific, medical and industrial areas.

We also encourage you to explore the wonders of the microscopic world using our prepared slides, containing very small parts of different kinds of plants and animals. The use of prepared microscopes slides with high power microscopes would provide a more interesting and enjoyable method of learning for starters in biology and natural history.

We also can provide microscopes which are great for doctors and health practitioners. In tropical countries like the Philippines and many parts of Southeast Asia, many diseases are caused by parasitic organisms living inside the body, which is why we have a need for equipment that can detect these organisms and diseases in the blood. Fortunately, we have it! We call it the live-blood analysis microscope.

For live blood analysis, unstained microscopes slides with live or fresh tissue specimens are better viewed using a phase contrast kit. Phase contrast method allows clear and transparent blood cells to appear with increased contrast. It enables to show components in a cell or bacteria, which would be very difficult to see in ordinary light microscopes.

For darkfield live-blood analysis, imaging techniques provides a method to view features in blood not normally shown in phase contrast and brightfield microscopy. Minute features of the blood are shown in a glowing light as light reflects off their surfaces. Our darkfield microscopes are best used to understand and view the cause to of improper nutrition and problems in the body.

For collectors of coins, our Low power-Stereoscopic microscopes would be best for viewing coin errors, coin overstrikes, and coin mintmarks. This could also be apply in biological interest in identifying insects and entomology. A stereomicroscope or stereoscope uses two different paths of light. This allows you to see specimens in 3D images.

For your Embryo-transplant application, we required a microscope that will not degrade the embryo. We provide an upper and lower illumination that utilized an external mounted halogen lights source, which does not significantly heat or harm the developing embryo.

Our metallurgical microscopes are instrument that are capable of producing a magnified image of a small objects. Important parameters specifying a metallurgical microscopy includes total magnification and resolution, which is corresponding to the objects.

As with our ore microscopes that has, both reflected and transmitted source of illumination. In this application, it provides identification rock-forming minerals to be clearly observe.

Our Epifluorescence microscopes are most ideally use for Advanced Biomedical Research, Genetics, Immunology, Cytology, Hematology, Oncology, Microchemistry, Analysis of Sedimentary Rock, and Inspections Impurities in Semiconductors.
