The Discovery Centi 02 microscope is designed for users who are learning the basics of biology and want to explore the microcosm. This model is easy to use as it does not require special knowledge or skills and comes with over 25 accessories. The microscope package includes the educational book 'Invisible World,' which will be a great help in the science learning journey.
It is a monocular microscope model with a three-lens revolving nosepiece. The magnification range varies between 100x and 900x. To observe a sample, place it on the stage and secure it with the stage clips. A disc diaphragm under the microscope stage allows you to adjust the lighting of the work area. The light source consists of a dual illumination system. On one side there is a mirror, on the other an incandescent bulb. Consequently, it is possible to use both natural and artificial light.
In addition to the microscope, the kit includes over 25 accessories: a complete experiment kit with all the tools and chemical preparations needed. The educational book 'Invisible World' is another fantastic accessory. This colorful book is written in easy-to-understand language, without overly complex terms, and is full of illustrations. The volume describes some simple experiments that can be done directly at home. Furthermore, it offers various explanations about microscopes and microorganisms.
An important distinguishing feature of this microscope: it is sold accompanied by a Discovery Flora & Fauna set that includes 24 pre-prepared slides.
