Abstract: An inverted microscope is provided, the inverted microscope including a microscope stage which includes an opening prepared for transmitted light illumination and which is designed to receive a sample holder and an imaging optical unit arranged below the microscope stage. A closed lower incubation space which surrounds at least the imaging optical unit is arranged adjacent to a lower side of the microscope stage. The inverted microscope is configured such that a temperature in the lower incubation space is adjustable to a specifiable target temperature, for the purposes of which at least one temperature sensor is arranged in the lower incubation space, the measurement signal of the at least one temperature sensor serving to set the specifiable target temperature.

Abstract: A system for microscopic examination of a sample has a microscope and an incubation environment conditioning unit connected to the microscope. The microscope has a microscope housing enclosing an illumination optics, a microscope stage and an imaging optics, an integrated sample chamber located within the microscope housing and formed by a separated housing section within the microscope housing. The housing section has a microscope interface for connecting the incubation environment conditioning unit to the sample chamber and/or to a stage top chamber for placing within the sample chamber and for receiving the sample. The system provides a first and a second incubation modes. In the first incubation mode the sample chamber is incubated by supply of a first incubation atmosphere by the incubation environment conditioning unit. In the second incubation mode the stage top chamber is incubated by supply of a second incubation atmosphere by the incubation environment conditioning unit.
