IQCrew's Science Discovery Series is designed to inspire kids to learn more about science. Microscopes are important tools which help children understand science and nature by allowing them to peek into the microscopic world, which is why they are a standard component of STEM curricula. Biology, chemistry, geology, and many more fields rely on microscopes to understand how things work.

Our new inverted design provides a big advantage over conventional microscopes, by allowing both traditional specimen slides and liquids to be used. By moving the microscope's lenses under the specimen stage, there's plenty room on top. A Petri dish can be used to hold liquid samples like pond water, hatching brine shrimp, or growing crystals. The inverted design also lets you adjust the focus without moving the stage, which could disturb the specimen.

How close up do you want to see things? The IN50C includes 2 eyepieces, and has 5 magnifications from 40X to 500X! The high-quality lenses provide a wide range of true optical magnification. Even better, the included 3MP digital eyepiece lets you watch everything on your computer! The included software can take photos and record video. You can edit the images using professional tools.

To get things started, this learning kit includes some prepared slides for viewing right out of the box. It also includes materials to prepare your own samples, like a Petri dish and blank slides. There is a graduated cylinder for measuring, and a pipette for easily transfering liquid samples. Forceps, a probe, and a stirring rod are also included for preparing and positioning specimens.
