C.  Color Transmission Calibration

NIST Traceable Color Transmission Calibration Slide - Calibrated

Microscopy color patches for assessing color accuracy. NIST traceable calibration data for each large color patch is supplied as spectral transmission. By using the supplied spreadsheet, this data can be converted to the color space you need (such as Adobe RGB 1998, L*A*B*, XYZ, etc.)

-24 color patches plus large clear area

-Black background to minimize flare

-The 4150 µm diameter patches are individually calibrated for spectral transmission. This allows accurate conversion (using the supplied spreadsheet) to other color space units.

-Smaller patches from 1000 µm diameter to 150 µm diameter are exposed and processed at the same time produce good correlation of the large calibrated patches to the smaller ones, but are not calibrated.

-Oil immersion objectives can be used because a standard 0.15 mm glass cover slip is permanently cemented over the color film.

-Film is permanently sandwiched between glass; atmospheric deterioration of the measured values is minimized.

-Each slide is individually serialized and calibrated.

Specifications

Overall Size	75mm x 25mm
Feature Array	24 unique color patches in 9 different sizes, ranging from 4.150 mm diameter to 0.150 mm diameter, and a large clear film area. Only the large patches (and clear area) are directly calibrated, but all patches are imaged and processed at the same time.
Polarity	Negative
Material	0.2 mm (0.007") thick polyester photo-film mounted onto 0.9 to 1 mm water white Soda-lime Glass with a 0.15 mm (0.006") glass coverslip for protection (exact thickness is subject to change)

Includes

• Calibrated IAM-9C color microscope slide
• Calibration Certificate
• Calibration Data Report
• Conversion Spreadsheet
• USB flash drive with data and spreadsheet
• Protective case
