Budget estimate

$200,000 – $500,000

A top‑tier all‑in‑one fluorescence microscope typically ranges from $200,000 to $500,000, depending on specifications, accessories, and service contracts. Given the university’s intent to purchase a single, high‑performance unit, the budget is likely within this bracket. Factors influencing the range include optional software modules, warranty extensions, and potential installation services.
