PARTS OF A MICROSCOPE Light source (illuminator) Condenser or Diaphragm Stage – Stage clips
Parts of a Microscope Adjustment Knobs – Coarse Adjustment – Fine Adjustment
PARTS OF A MICROSCOPE Objectives – Scanning Objective – Low Power Objective – High Power Objective – Nosepiece
Parts of a Microscope Ocular Lens
Parts of a Microscope Arm Base
CALCULATING TOTAL MAGNIFICATION Magnification of the eyepiece X the magnification of the objective = TOTAL MAGNIFICATION
Total Magnification Calculation If the ocular lens = 10x And the scanning objective = 4x What is the Total Magnification? 40X
Total Magnification Calculation If the ocular lens = 10x And the low power objective = 10x What is the total magnification? 100X
TOTAL MAGNIFICATION PROBLEM If ocular lens = 10X And the high power objective = 40X What is the total magnification? 400X
HANDLING A MICROSCOPE With your dominant hand grasp the arm Rest your other hand under the base of the microscope ALWAYS KEEP THE MICROSCOPE IN THE UPRIGHT POSITION!!
WHEN YOU ARE PUTTING THE MICROSCOPE AWAY… Remove the last slide you were working with and put it where it belongs Rotate the nosepiece so that the low power objective is in position Wind the cord around the base of the arm of the microscope
