MODULE 0 AND 1 Flashcards
lens, usually 10x in magnification, where you look through in the microscope
ocular/eyepiece
revolving nosepiece
where the objectives are attached
arm
where the microscope is grasped
objective lenses
lenses located above the stage
stage
platform under objectves where the specimen is placed
stage adjustment knobs
moves the slide left or right and forward or backward
lamp
built in light source for electric microscope
aperture diaphragm control
regulates the amount of light reaching the specimen
condenser
lens located below the stage which collects light and delivers it to the objective
coarse focus adjustment
focuses the specimen under the scanner and LPO
fine focus adjustment
focuses the specimen under hpo and oio
three basic parts of a microscope
mechanical, magnifying, illuminating
these are under illuminatio
lamp, condenser, iris diaphragm
under magnification
objectives and eyepiece
under mechanical
stage, coarse and fine knobs, revolving nosepiece, and stage adjustment knobs and slide holder
the shape of bacillus subtilis
rod-shaped
domain of neisseria subflava
bacteria
ability of a microscope lens to gather fine details of the specimen being discovered
limit or resolution / resolving power
formula of limit of resolution
abbe’s equation
states that resolution is defined by the wavelength of light and the NA
abbe’s equation
the constant value derived from the properties of light
0.61
wavelength of visible light
lambda
the refractive index of the medium between objective lens and glass slide
eta
half the value of the angular aperture
theta
cone angle; cone of light that enters the objective lens
angular aperture
