Classroom microscopes must be both easy to use and suitable for students, i.e. they must be able to withstand intensive use and rough treatment. Euromex microscopes offer high quality at affordable prices. The microscopes have been developed specifically with these requirements in mind, incorporating a well-thought-out design and the use of first-class materials.

High quality, yet affordably priced Euromex microscopes specifically match these demands due to the well-thought construction and usage of top-class materials

The modern MicroBlue microscope is an entry-level instrument and is especially popular when budgets are limited. The basic model has a fixed lens condenser and a simple stage. The models with integrated mechanical stage are equipped with an Abbe condenser. All models have 35mm achromatic objectives. The accompanying rechargeable batteries allow wireless operation.

The MicroBlue is also available with an LCD screen. These microscopes include all the normal MicroBlue features, but are also equipped with an HD LCD screen that allows live observations, the saving of images and videos, and they even have a basic line measurement function! The models with HD LCD screen can only be operated as a stand-alone device.
