Biology ProScope Kit

Vernier presents a new offering this spring that is sure to enhance every life science and biology classroom. In collaboration with Bodelin Technologies, Vernier is pleased to announce a ProScope kit specific to the needs of biology teachers. The Biology ProScope Kit features a USB handheld digital microscope and accessories that students can use to observe and document specimens. With this premier package, students can now study life from the microbial world to the macro level.

The Biology ProScope Kit includes a backlit 50X lens, a 1-to-10X variable focus lens, a lens tube adapter, a C-mount for use with a microscope, and a flexible, sturdy stand.

The ability to use the optics of a microscope or dissecting scope greatly broadens the utility of the ProScope, allowing images to be projected on a screen or captured and used in documents and presentations.

The Biology ProScope Kit comes with USB Shot software, making it compatible with both current Windows and Macintosh operating systems.

As a final bonus, remember that the ProScope can be fully integrated into Vernier’s award-winning Logger Pro software, and will work in concert with data collection. Just think, a student can now visually document both the conditions surrounding and the actual germination of a seed over several days.
