What it is
The BH2 series is compatible with a universal vertical illuminator, the BH2-UMA, which provides reflected light illumination for opaque samples.[4]
How it works
General reference — not yet source-verifiedThe Olympus BH2 uses objective lenses of varying magnification to form an image. A halogen or mercury lamp provides illumination. The stage moves vertically for focusing, and the nosepiece rotates to select objectives.
Applications
In botanical research, the Olympus BH2 light microscope was used to examine stained leaf sections in a comparative anatomical study of Morus species.[5]
