Description of this part for the microscope.

notation: 45 29 95)
Additional magnification: none, total magnification 1.0x
Mounting on microscope side: dovetail, diameter 44 mm
Mounting on the other side: C-mount thread (25 mm)

This element fits, among others, the following microscopes:
- Zeiss Axiophot
- Zeiss Axioplan
- Zeiss Axioskop 20
- Zeiss Axioskop 50
- Zeiss Axiotron
- Zeiss Axiotron 2

Also fits other microscope models (even from other manufacturers) that have a "dovetail" type output with a diameter of 44 mm in the trinocular head.

Note that this adapter has no optics inside - neither reducing nor magnifying - so the total factor is 1.0x.

This element can be the answer to the following questions:
- how to connect a camera to a Zeiss Axioplan microscope?
- how to connect a DSLR camera to a Zeiss Axio microscope?
- which photo adapter fits the 44 mm mount of a Zeiss Axiotron microscope?
- I need an adapter to C-mount 25 mm thread
- can I connect a USB camera or a digital camera to a Zeiss Axiophot microscope?

This is a four-position fluorescence reflector / fluorescence slider / filter cube carrier used in fluorescence microscopy. The element contains four positions for fluorescence filter cubes or fluorescence filter sets.

The offered element contains the following fluorescence filter cubes:

I.
- Excitation: G365
- Beam splitter: FT395
- Barrier filter: LP420

This filter set is typically used for UV fluorescence applications including:
- DAPI
- Hoechst
- AMCA
- DyLight 350
- other UV excited fluorophores

II.
- Excitation: BP450-490
- Beam splitter: FT510
- Barrier filter: LP515

This filter set is typically used for:
- FITC
- GFP
- Fluorescein
- Alexa Fluor 488
- green fluorescence dyes

III.
- empty slot without filter cube

The free slot allows:
- installation of an additional filter set
- operation without fluorescence filters
- faster switching between fluorescence techniques

IV.
- Excitation: BP546
- Beam splitter: FT580
- Barrier filter: LP590

This filter set is typically used for:
- Rhodamine
- TRITC
- Cy3
- Texas Red
- red fluorescence dyes

Such fluorescence filters are commonly used in:
- cell biology
- histology
- cytology
- immunology
- microbiology
- laboratory diagnostics
- molecular biology
- DNA and RNA analysis
- fluorochrome analysis
- observation of fluorescently labelled antibodies
- tissue autofluorescence studies
- observation of chlorophyll and plant specimens
- analysis of FITC, DAPI, AMCA, Rhodamine and related fluorescent dyes
- fluorescence photomicrography
- material science and technical analysis
- observation of UV fluorescent minerals and substances

Such filter sets are also popular among hobbyists and fluorescence microscopy enthusiasts:
- observing insect autofluorescence
- observing UV fluorescent minerals
- fluorescence photography
- observing fungi, pollen and biological structures
- experiments with fluorescent dyes

This fluorescence reflector is compatible among others with the following Carl Zeiss microscopes:
- Carl Zeiss Axioplan
- Carl Zeiss Axioskop
- Carl Zeiss Axiophot
- Carl Zeiss Axiovert
- other Carl Zeiss fluorescence microscopes using the 4FL system

Different names are commonly used for this element, including:
- fluorescence reflector
- fluorescence slider
- fluorescence module
- filter cube carrier
- filter cube holder
- fluorescence turret
- fluorescence filter holder
- fluorescence filter cube
- fluorescence cassette
- fluorescence insert
- fluorescence block

Description of this part for the microscope.

It is an optional accessory for Carl Zeiss West Germany microscopes (as well as those marketed under the Opton West Germany brand). It allows the user to set the exposure time, ISO value and similar parameters.

Basic specifications of the Zeiss photomicrography controller:
Model: Zeiss MC 63
Catalogue name: Steuerpult
Catalogue number: 47 74 25 - 9903 (alternative notation: 477425-9903)
Name in the English-language catalogue: Exposure control MA
Housing colour: grey

Zeiss MC 63 is an entire family of devices differing in version, feature set, number of controls, housing colour and catalogue number. Photomicrography systems incorporating this controller were supplied with many different Zeiss microscope models. There is no fixed relationship between a particular MC 63 catalogue number and a specific microscope model.

Please also compare it with the otherwise identical Zeiss MC 63 featuring a white housing. It bears catalogue number 45 60 45 and is listed in the database under number 99632.
