National Geographic 40x-400x Inverted Microscope

Unlike traditional microscopes, this model places the optics beneath the stage, allowing users to observe living specimens in liquid without disturbing them. Ideal for studying brine shrimp, plant matter, or cell cultures in a petri dish, the inverted design also protects the objective lenses from contamination.

Featuring three objective lenses and a range of magnifications from 40x to 400x, this microscope makes it easy to examine specimens in multiple stages of detail. Perfect for both beginners and experienced young scientists exploring cell structure and microbial life.

Comes ready for action with prepared and blank slides, a petri dish, specimen prep tools, and even a brine shrimp hatchery—giving users everything they need to start experimenting right out of the box.

Enhance specimen contrast and visibility with an adjustable LED illumination system and four included color filters (red, blue, yellow, and green). Whether you’re studying clear samples or colorful organisms, you’ll get a clearer, more vivid view.
