## UVM-1™ Microscope

UV, visible and NIR microscopy.

The UVM-1™ is a UV microscope that also can image in the visible and NIR. This UV-visible-NIR microscope embodies both advanced optics for cutting edge UV, color and NIR imaging and visualization. The system is a flexible design, very easy to use and very durable. It is designed with cutting edge CRAIC optics for the highest image quality and to give years of service.

The UVM-1™ UV microscope can image in transmission, reflectance, polarization and even in fluorescence from the UV, visible, and NIR regions with high spatial resolution…all with the same microscope and without swapping components.

*UV microscope imaging microscopic samples in the ultraviolet, visible and near infrared.*

Ease of use features also add to the power of the 2030PV PRO™ system and include everything from improvements in the instruments ergonomics to software to automation.

The 2030PV PRO™ microspectrophotometer is simple to use, the measurements are non-destructive and the spectral data is unmatched.

The UVM-1™ UV Microscope can image from the deep ultraviolet to near infrared with one seamless operation. It can acquire images in absorbance, reflectance, and fluorescence. It can be fitted with both the DirecVu™ to view samples by eye as well as with the high resolution digital imaging system.
