thank you very much :) it's very encouraging, here is what i did : 1) first I bought a leek at the market and put it in a glass of water next to my window sill for a few days. But before putting it in the glass of water I cut off the roots and leave 1cm . In doing so i make sure that new fresh roots...

And then I found a similar protocol inv...

Hello, today I received a led torch that emmits at 470 nm (blue light) and it matches perfectly the acridin orange spectrum ; so I could use this torch as a source for my epifluorescence module. I made a slide with some paramecia and a tiny bit of acridin orange.. Here are some photos.. 14 mai param...

the photo is already a macro photo with my macro 60mm on D3200 NIkon. anyway ; the "hole" isnt a reflection of light and is in fact a very tiny concave lens . I was able to find other objectives like this. And it turned out that these objective can be quite tricky to use if an air bubble is caught. ...

Hello, I bought some acridin orange on ebay ( approx 6E for 20g)!! and just tried it lst night on living protozoa with my BH2 epifluo attachment lit with a simple blue led light bulb 5W.

hello, last night I tried to take better pictures with my olympus epifluorescence module : 04 mai 21 mon micro et le module.jpg I dont have the lamp house that goes with it so I have to use different kind of light sources.
