These posts have a more theoretical approach to the subject matter. It provides a basic overview of microscope optics.
The parts of a compound microscope are explained in this post.
Is it possible to use microscopes to identify pathogens, such as the EHEC bacterium, which currently (May-June 2011) causes problems in some parts of Europe? The answer is, unfortunately, no.
Let us calculate the total number of cells in the human body.
These two microscopic techniques are suitable for different specimens.
Why is refractive index of mounting media important?
Eukaryotes are significantly larger than prokaryotes.
Euparal is a semi-synthetic mounting medium used in microscopy.
The resolution that a microscope is capable of achieving is probably the single most important factor that determines the quality of a microscopic image. Without a sufficiently high resolution, magnification is not possible without loss of quality. There are a variety of different factors that determine the achievable resolution. Some of these factors can not be actively influenced by the microscopist, others can. Some of the factors play a larger role, others a smaller one. In the following post, I want to summarize some of these factors.
The thickness of the cover glass can have a significant impact on the resolution.
Digital photography gives the users many new possibilities in improving photographs taken through the microscope. This post gives an overview of the different image processing functions that can be applied to microscopic images.
