Soil & Water Quality Testing Microscopes

Soil & Water Quality Testing Microscopes

Microscopes are essential tools in assessing environmental samples. In soil testing, they reveal microorganisms, root structures, and soil aggregates that underpin soil health.

For water quality assessment, phase contrast and brightfield microscopes illuminate bacteria, protozoa, and suspended particulates. Across environmental, agricultural, and municipal labs, these instruments support safe, informed decisions about ecosystem management.

Product Category Overview

Soil Food Web Microscopes – Engineered for in-depth soil analysis, these instruments highlight microbes, root architecture, and soil particle interactions. LW Scientific’s Revelation III and i4 models stand out with antifungal coatings, LED lighting, and optical clarity tailored to environmental samples.

Water Quality & Wastewater Microscopes – Offering both phase contrast and brightfield capabilities, these microscopes are designed to detect unstained organisms and particulates in water treatment and environmental monitoring contexts. Model lineups include ACCU-SCOPE and Labomed systems with LED illumination and phase contrast optics.
