(Carl Zeiss MicroImaging: Thornwood, NY) -- Carl Zeiss MicroImaging Inc. introduces the new Axio Lab.A1 microscope. The Axio Lab.A1 is now available for use in polarization microscopy and is particularly suitable for requirements in student education and routine laboratories.

This upright microscope suits colleges and universities, research institutes in the fields of the geosciences and mineralogy, and in the oil exploration industry. Axio Lab.A1 for polarization permits microscopic examinations of primarily thin geological and mineralogical specimens of glass and polymer samples.

This microscope features rapid, reliable switching from orthoscopy to conoscopy. The new stand for conoscopic examinations includes an integrated depolarizer and a rotary analyzer. The focusable Bertrand lens placed on the stand is linked to the analyzer, allowing excellent operating convenience, and error-free use.
