Product news

At MicroScience 2008 at Stand H6, Meiji Techno are launching their new warm stage option for the study of biological and life science specimens which require accurate control at body temperature. Such a system is vital for the study of sperm cell motility and routine cell biology applications.

This turnkey system uses a Meiji Techno phase contrast microscope with a 20x lens such as the MT4310H with the world-renowned Linkam warm stage modified for Meiji microscopes to hold a microscope slide. The stage provides accurate temperature control platform for upright microscope applications where it is crucial to maintain at +/- 0.1°C stable temperature in the sample. The stage has an overall temperature range from ambient to 60°C.

Meiji Techno Co., Ltd. is the third-largest manufacturer of optical microscopes in Japan. Meiji offers a limited warranty for their products against defects in material and/or workmanship for the life of the instrument. Originally a manufacturer of educational microscopes, Meiji Techno has since extended product lines into the industrial, laboratory, and higher education markets. Meiji Techno UK Ltd. is the sole approved importer of Meiji Techno microscopes for the UK and Europe.
