Test 1 Flashcards
An example of a biosafety level 4 organism would be
Ebola
Organisms that do not typically cause disease in healthy individuals are examples of biosafety level
1
Do what upon entering and exiting the laboratory?
Wash hands
Disinfect work services using
Wescodyne
Produces an image made from light that is transmitted through a specimen
Bright field microscopy
What concentrates the light through the specimen by directing it into a sharp cone
Condenser lens
Clarity of an image is called
Resolution
What is an actual measurement of how far apart two points must be for the microscope to view them as being separate
Resolving power or limit of resolution
What is the 10x View piece
Ocular
What holds the objectives
Nosepiece
Objectives power: scanning
4x
Objectives power: low power
10x
Objectives power: high dry
40x
Objectives power: oil immersion
100x
What is the only objective that you can see bacteria at
100x
When object is in focus under one objective it is in approximate focus under all objectives
Parfocal
Use the coarse knob only at
4x
Concentrates light through the specimen by directing it into a sharp cone
Condenser
Raises and lowers stage
Coarse focus knob
Brings into focus
Fine focus knob
On the condenser, adjusts the amount of light going through the specimen
Iris diaphragm
Multiply magnification of the ocular times magnification of the objective to get
Total magnification
What is the reason for oil
Decreases the amount of light refraction to improve the resolution because oil and glass have the same refractive index
Produces an image made of light that is reflected off of the specimen
Dark field microscopy
