Wondering what this insect looks like under high magnification? How are plants built? What's happening in a drop of pond water? Thanks to Levenhuk LabZZ M101 AmethystAmetyst microscope, each child will discover the answers to these and many other questions that will arise in his young and curious mind. The kit includes everything you need for your first self-conducted experiments, ready-made microscope slides, special tools and a practical guide describing many interesting experiments. The microscope stands out thanks to its distinctive, amethyst color, it is the perfect gift for a young biology student! High-quality optics Although this microscope was designed specifically for children, its optical parameters are as good as many adult microscopes. The device has three objective lenses. The rotating head allows you to quickly change the lens and the zoom level without interrupting your work. The unique feature of this model is the adjustable, two-position eyepiece, which combines the functions of two glasses with 10x and 16x magnification, and at the same time is extremely easy to use. The child will not have to replace the eyepiece, and thus will not lose it. Three lenses and an eyepiece allow you to set the following magnification levels: 40x, 64x, 100x, 160x, 400x and 640x. Examination of samples under a microscope During the test, a thin, transparent sample of the object, such as the wings of a fly or onion cells, should be placed on a round table. Thanks to the convenient clips, the sample will be well attached and will not slide out from under the lens with careless nudging. The light emitted by the LEDs (located under the stage) passes through the sample and allows you to obtain an enlarged image. A very useful function is the brightness control, which allows you to increase the backlight when viewing thicker samples with less transparency or to reduce it for thinner, more transparent objects. Comfortable and safe design The microscope body is made of durable plastic, thanks to which the instrument is both light and durable. To prevent discomfort while observing, the microscope head is tilted at 45 . The microscope is powered by a battery, which makes it not only safe to use, but also completely portable. Fascinating experiments The set includes an experiment kit that contains everything you need to conduct interesting experiments at home. In this practical guide, children will learn how the microscope works, what you can do with it, how to prepare samples or how to grow microscopic crustaceans at home, and much more!
