  2. Microscope slide - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Microscope_slide

    A microscope slide (top) and a cover slip (bottom) 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 then both are inserted together in the microscope for viewing. This ...

  3. Oil immersion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oil_immersion

    Without oil, light waves reflect off the slide specimen through the glass cover slip, through the air, and into the microscope lens (see the colored figure to the right). Unless a wave comes out at a 90-degree angle, it bends when it hits a new substance, the amount of bend depending on the angle. This distorts the image.

  4. Objective (optics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Objective_(optics)

    In optical engineering, an objective is an optical element that gathers light from an object being observed and focuses the light rays from it to produce a real image of the object. Objectives can be a single lens or mirror, or combinations of several optical elements. They are used in microscopes, binoculars, telescopes, cameras, slide ...

  5. Hemocytometer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hemocytometer

    Hemocytometer grid (see table) The hemocytometer (or haemocytometer) is a counting-chamber device originally designed and usually used for counting blood cells. [1] The hemocytometer was invented by Louis-Charles Malassez and consists of a thick glass microscope slide with a rectangular indentation that creates a precision volume chamber.

    The doctor will use a low-powered microscope, along with a slit lamp­, which is a high-intensity light. They will look closely at your eyes. ... an injury to one of the tissues that covers the ...

  7. Interferometric scattering microscopy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Interferometric_scattering...

    Interferometric scattering microscopy. Typical iSCAT configurations where either the reflected light from the cover-slip (a, c) or the transmitted light through the sample (b, d) is used as a reference field. The signal can be acquired with a camera in wide-field operation (a, b) or by point detection in confocal arrangement (c, d).

  8. Total internal reflection fluorescence microscope - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Total_internal_reflection...

    A total internal reflection fluorescence microscope ( TIRFM) is a type of microscope with which a thin region of a specimen, usually less than 200 nanometers can be observed. TIRFM is an imaging modality which uses the excitation of fluorescent cells in a thin optical specimen section that is supported on a glass slide.

  9. Imaging particle analysis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Imaging_Particle_Analysis

    More important, though, is that microscope-based systems have less depth of field issues generally versus dynamic imaging systems. This is because the sample is placed on a microscope slide, and then usually covered with a cover slip, thus limiting the plane containing the particles relative to the optical axis. This means that more particles ...
