Overview
Compact, Ergonomic Inverted Microscope for Cell CultureWith improved image quality and ergonomics, the Olympus CKX53 inverted microscope delivers stable performance and a comfortable workflow for a variety of cell culture needs, including live cell observation, cell sampling and handling, image capture, and fluorescence observation. |
Easy Live Cell ObservationsFast Cell Observation with the Integrated Phase Contrast (iPC) System
Efficient Cell Screening with a Clear, Wide View

Live Cell Observation Under Sterile ConditionsSmall Footprint Enables In-Hood SterilizationThe CKX53 microscope fits on a clean lab bench and can be remain there during the UV sterilization process thanks to its UV-resistant coating. The system is about 7 kg (15.4 lb), lighter than the previous model and has a smaller footprint, so it takes up less space in your lab. You can move the microscope with one hand, and it’s easy to carry it by the neck of the observation tube. The base’s sliding pad makes it easy to position. Easy Cell Sampling in a Sterile Bench EnvironmentThe short distance between the view point and the optical axis/focus knob facilitates natural hand positioning and makes focusing and cell sampling easier. |

Ergonomic Microscope DesignComfortable Viewing PositionThe eyepieces’ 45-degree angle and the placement of the butterfly-shaped observation tube against the stage facilitates ergonomic cell observation, whether standing or seated. Rest Your Hand Near the ControlsAll the controls, including the power switch, coarse and fine focus, and the knob for switching the light path, are ergonomically located for easy access and reduced user fatigue. |

Applied Technologies
3D Cell Views with the Inversion Contrast (IVC) TechniqueThe IVC technique offers a narrower depth of field than phase contrast, rendering clear three-dimensional images for objects of any shape or transparency. IVC observation also provides clear views without halos or directional shadows, preserving the integrity of object details during observation. *10X objectives (PLCN10X, CACHN10XIPC) are used for this new IVC observation. | Esquerda: PH/Direita: IVC |
Easy Fluorescence ImagingClear Views with a Wide Range of Fluorescent DyesWith the CKX53 standard fluorescence set, even weak fluorescence signals can be viewed clearly with the aid of different integrated light sources, such as a 100 W mercury lamp (U-LH100HG), a LED and LDP light source (U-LGPS), and 3rd party LEDs*. The same type of mirror unit as those offered with our IX3 and BX3 microscopes can be set in the mirror unit slider’s three slots. High Contrast Under Bright ConditionsThe Umbra Shield efficiently blocks out room light, enhances the contrast of fluorescence, and enables clear fluorescence observation under bright lab conditions. When using phase contrast, you can lift the shield to pass light through to the sample. |

Achieve a Safer and More Flexible Cell Culture Process with a Wireless Digital Camera and Heads-Up DisplayWith the wireless LAN-enabled EP50 digital camera, you can move your CKX53 microscope around the tissue culture room and into a biosafety cabinet without having to worry about a corded connection to a computer. Manipulate and save images remotely from a computer, tablet, or smartphone. Add the heads-up display for a compact all-in-one imaging solution. The entire unit can be safely used inside a biosafety cabinet, keeping your samples sterile while you image. * Third-party products may not be available in some countries. |
