Immersion Oil 50ml

Original price was: KSh3,500.00.Current price is: KSh3,000.00.

Immersion oil is a specialized oil used in microscopy to enhance the clarity and resolution of images observed through high-power objective lenses. It has a refractive index similar to that of glass, reducing light refraction and increasing the amount of light reaching the microscope’s objective lens. This allows for greater detail and higher magnification of microscopic specimens. Typically, immersion oil is used with 100x oil-immersion objectives, and it’s essential for achieving the highest possible image quality in certain types of microscopy.

Description

Uses of Immersion Oil

Microscopy:

To improve the clarity and resolution of images when using high magnification objectives (typically 100x). It helps to minimize light refraction and improve image sharpness.

Cellular and Microbial Studies:

To observe fine details of cells, microorganisms, and tissues that are not visible with lower magnification objectives.

Specimen Examination:

To facilitate the examination of delicate or transparent specimens by providing a continuous optical path between the specimen and the lens.

Enhanced Contrast:

To increase the contrast of images, making it easier to distinguish between different structures within the specimen.

High-Resolution Imaging:

To support advanced imaging techniques that require the highest possible resolution and detail.

Aluminum Carbonate 250g

Original price was: KSh700.00.Current price is: KSh600.00.
Aluminum carbonate is a chemical compound with the formula Al2(CO3)3. It is a white, crystalline solid that is insoluble in water. Aluminum carbonate is not commonly encountered in pure form due to its high instability, especially in the presence of water and carbon dioxide. Instead, it tends to decompose into aluminum hydroxide and carbon dioxide when exposed to moisture or acidic conditions.

Anhydrous Aluminum Chloride

Original price was: KSh1,183.00.Current price is: KSh950.00.
Anhydrous aluminum chloride, often represented as AlCl3, is a chemical compound composed of aluminum and chlorine. "Anhydrous" means it lacks water molecules in its structure. It's a white or pale yellow solid that is highly hygroscopic, meaning it readily absorbs moisture from the air. This property makes handling it a bit tricky since it can form a solution with water vapor in the air, turning into a fuming liquid.
