Overview & Features
Nikon Advanced Modulation Contrast -Dedicated objectives for advanced modulation contrast.

Features
Colorless and transparent samples can be observed in high relief, even through plasticware, which is not possible with DIC. The direction of contrast can be matched to S Plan Fluor ELWD NAMC objectives, thereby allowing optimal contrast selection for techniques like microinjection and ICSI.
