To be Ordered Separately
For the mobile teams, it is advisable to order a separate transport case to protect the microscope during transport (+/- 250 €, see accesories). The box is only indicated for mobile teams using the microscope without the fluorescence system.
Instructions for use
Protect from dust, shocks and humidity.
Please consult the “Updated laboratory procedures, 2022” available online via the Laboratory working Group sharepoint page: Laboratory Procedures and Resources.

Precautions for Use
Secure all electrical devices in the laboratory with a UPS double conversion (see related articles below). To define the best sizing of the UPS, contact your biomedical or energy referent.
Maintenance
Recommendations lens cleaning:
- Blow all dust particles away
- Remove all water-soluble dirt with distilled water. If this is not successful, repeat using diluted dishwashing liquid.
- Remove oily dirt, first using diluted dishwashing liquid.
MSF requirements
Less expensive than other fluorescence microscopes.
Rapid switching from fluorescence to light microscopy and vice-versa.
