UIS2 objectives for more ergonomic
cytology
When employed with the ergonomically designed Olympus BX45 clinical microscope, Olympus PLNCY series dedicated cytology objectives offers outstanding images with superior contrast and image clarity
Olympus has announced the addition of three new UIS2 objectives specifically for cytology applications Together with the PLN10xCY and PLFLN10xCY objectives introduced last year, the PLN2xCY, PLN4xCY and PLN20xCY objectives feature built-in neutral-density (ND) filters, enabling quick changes in magnification without the need to adjust light intensity at all

Furthermore, with the perfect ergonomic layout ensuring visual comfort, Olympus is setting new standards in clinical microscopy.
The Olympus PLNCY series of UIS2 microscope objectives are specifically designed for clinical laboratory and examination work in both diagnostics and education purposes.
These objectives are plan corrected, and therefore ensure bright and clear observation images with excellent flatness across the entire field of view.
The built-in ND filters are designed for light balancing, allowing the user to switch from low to high magnification quickly and effortlessly without adjusting the light intensity.
This also allows for a more convenient way of working in the clinical environment, saving valuable time when compared to using an objective and a separate ND filter.
In addition, user fatigue is reduced during cytological examinations, allowing faster and more accurate screening of specimens with significantly reduced eye strain.
Researchers can now choose from a range of objectives covering 2x, 4x, 10x and 20x magnifications, designed to fit the Olympus BX2 range of clinical inspection microscopes.
These have always been greatly valued for their ergonomic features.
In particular the Olympus BX45 has been specifically designed to meet the rigorous demands of repetitive routine microscopy and prolonged use in clinical screening, by allowing users to find the ultimate position.
Olympus's ergonomic approach enables users to fully benefit from a perfect, upright and comfortable posture, which is essential for long-term fatigue-free operation.
Furthermore, the complete effortless and straightforward operation and the high optical performance of the UIS2 optics complete the ultimate ergonomic solution. Request a free brochure from Olympus Life Science Europa ...
