Olympus BX61 Upright Fluorescence Microscope (Used)
The Olympus BX61 is a fully motorized upright fluorescence microscope built for advanced life science imaging applications. With automated control of focus (Z-axis), nosepiece, fluorescence filter turret, and condenser, the BX61 enables precise and repeatable imaging across multi-channel fluorescence, Z-stack acquisition, and time-lapse workflows. Combined with Olympus UIS2 infinity-corrected optics and a control computer running MicroManager, this platform is ideal for high-content imaging, automation, and core facility environments.
