ZEISS Axio Imager 2 for Life Science Research

Your Upright Research Microscope Platform

Advanced Imaging with Brilliant Optics and Bright Fluorescence

Axio Imager 2 combines everything you've ever asked for in your research environment: brilliant optics and bright fluorescence.
The contrast manager and light manager ensure defined conditions and reproducible results at all times. Use ACR to automatically detect and configure objectives and filter sets for Axio Imager.Z2.

Choose your system out of six different stand versions and combine with high end fluorescence imaging systems: ApoTome.2 and laser scanning microscopes like LSM 800 and LSM 880. Whether you are simply observing and recording, or performing highly complex imaging experiments: it’s easy to adapt the system components to the application at hand. The research microscope Axio Imager 2 resolves finest details of your samples - from tissue sections in pathology to brain specimens in neuroscience to multi-dyed FISH specimens.
