Product Information

Immersion oil (synthetic) is a specialized optical medium designed to enhance the resolution and clarity of images in microscopy. This synthetic oil is formulated to have a refractive index that closely matches that of glass, making it ideal for use with high-power objectives in light microscopy. Its unique properties allow for improved light transmission and reduced optical aberrations, which are crucial for obtaining high-quality images in both research and clinical settings.

This immersion oil is particularly beneficial in biological and materials science applications, where precise imaging is essential. Researchers utilize it to study cellular structures, tissues, and various materials at high magnifications, enabling detailed analysis and observation. Additionally, its synthetic formulation ensures consistency and reliability, making it a preferred choice over natural oils, which may vary in quality. Immersion oil (synthetic) is an indispensable tool for professionals seeking to achieve optimal imaging results in their microscopy work.
