Inner knob before the coarse adjustment knob
28
It refers to the **thickness of the coverslip** to be used; coverslip to be used must be **compatible with the objective** to be used for microscopic examination - N o t O
Numbers on the objectives
29
Most objectives have 3 to 4 lenses
Scanner Objective (4x) Low Power Objective (10x) High Power Objective (40x) Oil Immersion Objective (100x)
30
a hole on the microscope stage through which the transmitted light from the source reaches the stage
Aperture
31
supports the prepared microscope slide to be reviewed. Used for much easier to manipulate the object being observed | (yes not the base)
Mechanical stage
32
It is also available by turning the **knob** left and right or backward and forward
Mechanical stage knob
33
determines the **positioning** of the cells under the microscope; provides the **coordinates or location** of important cells "With numbers"
Stage numbers
34

Stage clip
35
**focuses** or **directs** the **available light** into the objective as it *raised or lowered*. Lowering it will increase the contrast of unstained specimens. |Basta wala ni numbers

37
regulates the **amount of light** that strikes the object being viewed. May be adjusted by a **movable lever**.
Iris Diaphragm
38
It is used to focus with the **low power objective only**
Coarse adjustment knob
39
gives a sharper image after the object is brought into view with coarse adjustment. Used in Higher Power Objective
Fine adjustment knob
40
located within the base. For adjustment of the illumination for brightness | It is not the light source but a knob
Brightness adjustment knob/ Microscopic illuminator
41
a firm, horseshoe-shaped foot on which the microscope rests’ it contains the light or mirror | (not a mirror pls)
Base
42
the distance between the objective and the slide when objective is sharp focus.
Working distance

DIFFERENT TYPES OF MICROSCOPES | 3 types
COMPOUND/UPRIGHT INVERTED STEREOMICROSCOPE
46
Objective lens faces downward, and specimens is observed from above. Suitable for observation of glass slides or prepared slides Used for routine microscopic examinations | (TYPE OF MICROSCOPE- SPECIFIC)
COMPOUND/UPRIGHT
47
Objective lens faces upwards, and specimen is observed from below Used for observation of culture container (stem cells/unstained cells) | (TYPE OF MICROSCOPE) - SPECIFIC
INVERTED
48
2 separate light path, enables observation of specimen from different angles at both eyes. Allow 3D observation of sample Suitable for animal works and large sample imaging | (TYPE OF MICROSCOPE)- SPECIFIC
STEREOMICROSCOPE

60
Objects appear brilliantly illuminated against a black background Used to demonstrate spirochetes which are difficult to observe in transmitted light | APPLICATIONS BUT SPECIFIC
DARKFIELD MICROSCOPY
61
Develops an image resulting from variable electron density of the specimen interposed in the electron beam = Produces **monotone, two-dimensional, high magnified images** = **Resolving power** is 0.001 um, which is **200X** that of light microscopes = Specimens **must be fixed, stained and dried** = Used to observe **internal ultra-structural detail of cells** and **observations of viruses or small bacteria** | APPLICATIONS BUT SPECIFIC
TEM (TRANSMISSION ELECTRON MICROSCOPE)
62
Has a practical limit of resolution of 0.005um or five-fold less than that of TEM = Produces monotone, tri-dimensional image by detection at a 90 degrees angle of secondary electrons emitted from the specimen surface as a result of bombardment by the primary electron beam = Used to observe the surface details of structures | APPLICATIONS BUT SPECIFIC
