Laboratory light microscopes configured with illumination at the top, the stage below, and optics on the bottom for microscopic study of large specimens by transmitted light. Most inverted-stage microscopes are configured for observation of samples using several contrast methods (e.g., phase contrast). These microscopes are used for examination of tissue cultures in all types of culture vessels (e.g., petri dishes, culture bottles) and in microtest and microtiter plates.
