Olympus IX51 - Differential Interference Contrast Observation

38
}If a plastic petri dish is used, the normal optical performance of DIC observation cannot be manifested due to the
polarization characteristic of the petri dish. Use a glass bottom dish.
}For simultaneous observation with reflected fluorescence observation, refer to the separate instruction manual.
}DIC optical elements, a DIC slider, analyzer and polarizer are required for DIC observation.
