COLO.SCIENCE – INVE700 INVERTED MICROSCOPE PLATFORM
Why INVE700 is a practical choice for cell culture observation
The INVE700 inverted microscope is designed for routine and advanced live-cell observation in
cell culture environments. Its inverted architecture provides comfortable access to culture vessels (Petri dishes, flasks,
multiwell plates), while the Köhler transmitted illumination and UIS2 infinity optical system
support stable contrast and consistent imaging.
The platform is commonly configured as Brightfield (INVE700B), Phase Contrast (INVE700P), or
Fluorescence (INVE700F). A coded 5-position nosepiece and objective-linked brightness memory
help standardize work across multiple magnifications — useful for QC imaging and repeatable documentation.
Key features (short)
- Köhler transmitted illumination with non-heat 3W LED 4000K.
- UIS2 infinity optics with objective sets by configuration.
- Phase contrast slider (pre-centered) for 4× / 10× / 20× / 40× + 2 empty positions.
- Coded 5-position nosepiece + brightness memory per objective.
- Front LCD display (magnification, brightness, standby/timing, lock status).
Where it fits best
- Cell culture routine observation and documentation.
- Live-cell workflows needing phase contrast for transparent samples.
- Teaching & training with camera output (trinocular + C-mount).
- Research setups that may require condenser removal (space for accessories).
PRACTICAL USE & CHECKLISTS
Daily setup checklist (fast)
For consistent results: start at low magnification, confirm comfortable interpupillary distance and diopter settings,
then set stable illumination (Köhler alignment where applicable) before moving to higher objectives.
For phase contrast: use the pre-centered phase slider position matching your objective (4×/10×/20×/40×).
lass=”yoast-text-mark” />>For imaging: confirm C-mount/adapter fit and standardize exposure presets for repeatable documentation.
COLO.Science & equipment
At COLO.Science, inverted microscopes are configured based on your application: vessel types,
required contrast method (BF/PH/FL), and camera needs — including onboarding support when needed.
If you need specific fluorescence bands or specialized filter modules, we can propose a matching configuration.
