Introducing AmScope’s EduPro Series – a premium line of educational microscopes engineered to meet the demanding standards of today’s science classrooms and laboratories. Crafted with precision and durability in mind, EduPro microscopes combine robust construction, a sleek modern design, and high-quality optics to deliver exceptional performance for middle school, high school, and collegiate-level education. This series represents AmScope’s commitment to empowering the next generation of scientists with reliable, professional-grade tools.
Designed for both introductory and advanced biology courses, the EduPro compound microscope enables students to explore cell structures, observe microorganisms, and perform detailed analyses with clarity and ease. Its refined engineering and ergonomic features ensure a seamless learning experience, making it a trusted choice for instructors and academic institutions seeking long-term value.
Premium Viewing Head
The classic monocular viewing head provides a streamlined, intuitive approach to microscopy. Its 30° incline is optimized for classroom use, reducing neck strain and encouraging proper posture during extended sessions. The simplified single-eyepiece design helps multiple users quickly adapt, making it ideal for collaborative learning environments.
Precision Mechanical Stage
The double-layer mechanical stage offers smooth, accurate slide positioning for professional-level control. Low-position coaxial X-Y controls and symmetrical focusing knobs provide an ergonomic, efficient workflow, while adjustable tension control allows instructors to customize resistance for an optimal user experience. This design ensures precise navigation of specimens and effortless fine adjustments, even for first-time users.
Advanced LED Illumination
Equipped with a powerful 3W variable-intensity LED system, this microscope produces bright, crisp, and evenly illuminated images. The pre-centered Abbe condenser (NA 1.25) is oil-immersion compatible and ensures maximum resolution and contrast, allowing students to observe minute details with professional clarity.
