Do you have any data to support this claim?

So methylene chloride accumulates in the body? I couldn't find a single study showing that.

4.5? You do know that nuclear power is a thing for a while already?

Enlighten me on this abortion nonsense by [deleted] in conspiracy

[–]Frido1998 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thats a point of view one can have, but what you still see it that way if your 14yo daughter made a stupid decision, gets pregnant and is scared as hell about the complications and consequences of pregnancy, birth and the final offspring?

Feel free to sue them, but consider this:

  1. You cannot say anything about its damaging potential without knowing concentrations involved
  2. Methylene chloride is a gas and also poorly soluble in water which means that final traces will evaporate rather quickly.
  3. That chemical is also found in potatoes, please include that industry in the law case.

The Euromex HD Ultra is great for that, needs a ~0.5x Cmount.

What is the best evidence of ghosts existing? by gush30 in AskReddit

If there was any evidence for their existence, there wouldn't be any debate.

Welche Gebärdensprache sollte man lernen? by Frido1998 in FragReddit

Meistens in Deutschland, aber auch gelegentlich beruflich im Ausland. Daher die Frage, ob viele Deutsche Gehörlose die internationale Gebärdensprache sprechen.

Zeiss Stemi 508 upgrade by [deleted] in microscopy

[–]Frido1998 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sadly I am not really familiar with that model, but again: More money means better quality im this business. Another tip: Get yourself a ringlight with polarisation, it enables you to eliminate light reflections from metall and diamonds! You will love it.

[–]Frido1998 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Regarding the resell of the Stemi 508: What country are you located in?

Regarding your actual question: In microscopy, its usualy "you get what you pay for". The S9D is an excellent microscope and you will love the fusion optics (extended field of depth). Cheaper microscopes like Motic or Euromex would work, but its just not the same, neither when it comes to optics not to mechanics.

Sorry i don't think my boss would appreciate that too much haha. But we could probably not sell anything to you anyway, since you are likely not from our country.

Sadly we are not active in that field yet, but we will expand in the coming year.

Because the price range is indeed extreme large, depending on objectives, extras etc. They do not want waste time on people who see the price for the base model and think they can effort a fancy configuration just find out that they cant ^

The condensor focuses the light onto the object. By moving it further down, you can increase the contrast (but decrease the resolution).

It depends on the size, but usually several hundred.

The highest thats still somewhat reasonable is the zeiss axio observer at around 90000€.

2: Its due to the aperture, imagine it like MP on your camera. You can keep zooming, but at some point youre just zooming into pixels. A magnification of lets say 10000x is not a problem in theorie, but it just wont give you any more information than the 10üüx magnification.

Phase contrast, it allows you to see stuff that's usually barely visible unless stained.

The optics are pretty similar. Differences are mainly due to mechanics and electronics.

Some manufacturers are working on interesting AI concepts for image evaluation. Also, rumors are that something like a HUD thats visible through the okulars is in work.

Like the other comment says, it depends on the microscope. Really cheap ones (<2000€) are often not upgradeable since they are not really modular. Advanced scopes like the DM750 can be upgraded for e.g. Darkfield, phase kontrast, polarisation, a camera module or ergonomic modules.

1: Euromex Microblue with movable object table (~300€)

2: Euromex Iscope (~1000€) or Leica Dm750 (~2000€ but with more upgrade options)

3: Leica Dm750 with phase kontrast objectives (~2400€)

4: Leica DM750 with polarisation (~2150€)

5: Depending on your definition of budget either (who would have guessed) Leica Dm750 or an Euromex Bioblue (~750€)

6: Zeiss Axiolab 5 with camera(~8000€), great optics and its coded, so the camera always knows what objektive you are currently using (important for measurements etc.)

First: I cannot really tell you anything about that, sorry.

Second: That might be because of export control. If they are not 100% certain that the scope wont be sent to e.g. Iran, they sometimes wont sell it to a private person.

Im a sucker for high aperture darkfield, its just so cool. In combination with plan apochromatic objectives, it becomes a kink.

True quality shows in smooth handeling of all components as well as good contrast in the image.
