Zeiss Primo Star iLED (obsolete)

Continuing a tradition started by Robert Koch: Research tuberculosis with a microscope from Carl Zeiss In 1882, Robert Koch using a Carl Zeiss microscope discovered Mycobacterium tuberculosis, the pathogen that causes tuberculosis.

Here is another substantial technology contribution from Carl Zeiss to the battle against infectious diseases: Primo Star iLED, the new fluorescence microscope.

Primo Star iLED is the flexible solution for tuberculosis analysis with LED fluorescence excitation and transmitted-light brightfield illumination.

Your Decision: Decide for yourself if you want to analyze tuberculosis according to Ziehl-Neelson-Staining or if you like to use fluorescence excitation, e.g. with Auramine O dye. Primo Star iLED gives you the opportunity: simply switch between the two modes.
