  2. Microscope slide - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Microscope_slide

    A set of standard 75 by 25 mm microscope slides. The white area can be written on to label the slide. A microscope slide (top) and a cover slip (bottom) A microscope slide is a thin flat piece of glass, typically 75 by 26 mm (3 by 1 inches) and about 1 mm thick, used to hold objects for examination under a microscope.

  3. Oil immersion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oil_immersion

    In light microscopy, oil immersion is a technique used to increase the resolving power of a microscope. This is achieved by immersing both the objective lens and the specimen in a transparent oil of high refractive index, thereby increasing the numerical aperture of the objective lens. Without oil, light waves reflect off the slide specimen ...

  4. Hemocytometer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hemocytometer

    A hemocytometer. The two semi-reflective rectangles are the counting chambers. The hemocytometer (or haemocytometer, or Burker's chamber) is a counting-chamber device originally designed and usually used for counting blood cells. [1] The hemocytometer was invented by Louis-Charles Malassez and consists of a thick glass microscope slide with a ...

  5. Optical microscope - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Optical_microscope

    Optical microscope. The optical microscope, also referred to as a light microscope, is a type of microscope that commonly uses visible light and a system of lenses to generate magnified images of small objects. Optical microscopes are the oldest design of microscope and were possibly invented in their present compound form in the 17th century.

    I feel it should be pointed out that a cover slip is absolutely necessary with a microscope objective lens of 40x (NA 0.65) or greater power. All such objective lenses are optically designed for viewing through a glass cover slip of 0.17mm thickness. Failure to use a cover slip results in optical distortion of the image.

  7. Total internal reflection fluorescence microscope - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Total_internal_reflection...

    Total internal reflection fluorescence microscope. A total internal reflection fluorescence microscope (TIRFM) is a type of microscope with which a thin region of a specimen, usually less than 200 nanometers can be observed. TIRFM is an imaging modality which uses the excitation of fluorescent cells in a thin optical specimen section that is ...

  8. Foldscope - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Foldscope

    A Foldscope is an optical microscope that can be assembled from a punched sheet of cardstock, a spherical glass lens, a light emitting diode (LED) and a diffuser panel, along with a watch battery that powers the LED. [4] Once assembled, the Foldscope is about the size of a bookmark. The Foldscope weighs 8 grams [citation needed] and comes in a ...

  9. Live-cell imaging - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Live-cell_imaging

    To keep cells alive during observation, the microscopes are commonly enclosed in a micro cell incubator (the transparent box). Live-cell imaging is the study of living cells using time-lapse microscopy. It is used by scientists to obtain a better understanding of biological function through the study of cellular dynamics.
