Application
The Leica DM IL microscope is designed for
routine examinations of cell and tissue cultures,
liquids, and sediments.
Two basic microscope stands are available for
biologic applications. One is the standard bright
field version using the contrasting methods
bright field (BF), phase contrast (Phaco), and
Integrated Modulation Contrast (IMC), the other
is the fluorescence microscope which also
offers incident-light fluorescence in addition
to the three transmitted-light contrasting
techniques.
All microscope techniques and the required
accessories for the Leica DM IL are described
and explained in detail in the Operation section
of this manual, including the associated
functions and their use.
