Leeds' Student Trace Evidence

Leeds’ Student Trace Evidence Comparison Microscope (LCTs) has been designed for teaching basic comparison microscope techniques and is a very economical comparison microscope for the classroom.

The LCT is a teaching comparison microscope for use in instructing students in the comparison of specimens such as hair, fibers, surfaces or cross sections of paint layers, plant parts and dust or dirt particles viewed under a compound microscope.

With the LCTs Student Trace Evidence Comparison Microscope, two specimens can be viewed as: split-field, superimposed or right/left field individually. Separate slide controls allow for continuous adjustment from 100% of the left image to 100% of the right image, or any position in between. A detent locates the center split position on the right image. The center split position for left image is user adjusted so that the dividing line width can be varied as desired.

Key Features Include:

• Single randomized, calibrated, bifurcated fiber-optic light guide
• Color and light intensity balanced
• 16" x 20" Base plate with handles
• Compact footprint
• Option to attach a digital camera
