Imersion oil 30,ml
In stock
In veterinary diagnostics, examining samples like blood smears or fecal floats for parasites requires high-power magnification (1000x total). When light passes from the glass slide through the air to the microscope objective, it bends (refracts) and scatters, which leads to blurred images. Immersion oil displaces the air because it shares the same refractive index as glass (n ≈ 1.515).

In veterinary diagnostics, examining samples like blood smears or fecal floats for parasites requires high-power magnification (1000x total). When light passes from the glass slide through the air to the microscope objective, it bends (refracts) and scatters, which leads to blurred images. Immersion oil displaces the air because it shares the same refractive index as glass (n ≈ 1.515). This bridges the gap so the light travels continuously through the glass and oil without bending, delivering high-resolution, bright, and detailed images.
No specifications have been listed.
- Refractive Index (\(n_{D}\)): Calibrated to approximately 1.515 at standard temperatures, which perfectly matches standard microscope slides and cover slips.
- Viscosity: Designed to hold a steady film without running or drying out, making it ideal for examining multiple slides in a row.
- Safe for Optics: High-quality immersion oils are chemically stable, non-drying, and non-hardening, which protects delicate, expensive objective lenses from corrosion.
