The SVM340 is a research-grade, inverted fluorescence video microscope specifically designed for applications in microfluidics and microbiology. This advanced microscope excels in capturing high-quality experimental data directly to a hard drive, supported by a range of customizable options including filters, cameras, illumination, and objectives. The system boasts a motorized traverse and focus, alongside software-configurable image-based triggers, making it ideal for µTAS prototypes and automated miniature processes. Its new Particle Counting Probes offer real-time particle counting and characterization up to 5000 particles per frame, enabling particle characterization from sub-micron to hundreds of microns in diameter. Applications relate to sensor monitoring in microfluidic sorters, culture characterization, and particle size quantification. The compact form factor (21 cm x 27 cm x 9 cm) supports scans up to 75 mm x 50 mm, offering a cost-effective solution for micro- and nanosystem research. Typically, the SVM340 ships within 4-5 weeks.

The optics module designed for the SVM340 microscope features a 5 MP black and white CMOS camera. It's equipped to support fluorescence imaging with an adaptable mount for a fluorescence filter, although it is not included. Additionally, it is compatible with standard DIN objectives which are also not included. The module touts a resolution of 2448 x 2048 pixels and offers a frame rate of 38 fps at full resolution, which can be enhanced to 200 fps at lower resolutions. Using a USB3.0 interface, the device supports both automatic and manual gain control, utilizing a progressive scan type and the efficient Sony IMX264LQ Pregius CMOS sensor. This component is essential for those in microfluidics and microbiology research, looking for high-quality imaging solutions. Availability is limited to direct inquiry with LabSmith, as the product isn't purchasable online, ensuring a tailored customer service experience.
