As far as I can tell, it's "nothing more" than a transmitted
fluorescence microscope that doesn't use a mercury bulb. It depends
on the blue emission from a bright halogen bulb for things like DAPI.
There seems to be an amateur microscopy community in the UK that uses
G&S microscopes - someone in Old Blighty might have more information
(Keith?).
