  2. Microscope slide - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Microscope_slide

    Microscope slide. A set of standard 75 by 25 mm microscope slides. The white area can be written on to label the slide. A microscope slide is a thin flat piece of glass, typically 75 by 26 mm (3 by 1 inches) and about 1 mm thick, used to hold objects for examination under a microscope. Typically the object is mounted (secured) on the slide, and ...

  3. Microscopy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Microscopy

    Microscopy. Scanning electron microscope image of pollen (false colors) Microscopic examination in a biochemical laboratory. Microscopy is the technical field of using microscopes to view objects and areas of objects that cannot be seen with the naked eye (objects that are not within the resolution range of the normal eye).

  4. Optical microscope - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Optical_microscope

    Optical microscope. The optical microscope, also referred to as a light microscope, is a type of microscope that commonly uses visible light and a system of lenses to generate magnified images of small objects. Optical microscopes are the oldest design of microscope and were possibly invented in their present compound form in the 17th century.

  5. Phase-contrast microscopy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phase-contrast_microscopy

    Phase-contrast microscope. Phase-contrast microscopy (PCM) is an optical microscopy technique that converts phase shifts in light passing through a transparent specimen to brightness changes in the image. Phase shifts themselves are invisible, but become visible when shown as brightness variations.

  6. Cell counting - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cell_counting

    A counting chamber, is a microscope slide that is especially designed to enable cell counting. Hemocytometers and Sedgewick Rafter counting chambers are two types of counting chambers. The hemocytometer has two gridded chambers in its middle, which are covered with a special glass slide when counting.

  7. Histology - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Histology

    Histologic specimen being placed on the stage of an optical microscope. Human lung tissue stained with hematoxylin and eosin as seen under a microscope. Histology, also known as microscopic anatomy or microanatomy, is the branch of biology that studies the microscopic anatomy of biological tissues.

  8. Confocal microscopy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Confocal_microscopy

    3-301. Fluorescence and confocal microscopes operating principle. Confocal microscopy, most frequently confocal laser scanning microscopy ( CLSM) or laser scanning confocal microscopy ( LSCM ), is an optical imaging technique for increasing optical resolution and contrast of a micrograph by means of using a spatial pinhole to block out-of-focus ...

  9. Blood smear - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blood_smear

    A blood smear, peripheral blood smear or blood film is a thin layer of blood smeared on a glass microscope slide and then stained in such a way as to allow the various blood cells to be examined microscopically. Blood smears are examined in the investigation of hematological (blood) disorders and are routinely employed to look for blood ...
