A microscope is an essential tool that is used in most laboratories. We would know nothing about the microorganisms around us if this incredible instrument did
Inverted microscopes are light microscopes whose objectives are below the stage – where examining samples are placed. It is the opposite of traditional compound microscopes, where
Introduction A microtome is a precision tool used in labs to cut extremely thin sections of different materials. It’s derived from two Greek words mikros, meaning
Introduction Scanning Tunneling Microscopy, or STM, is a scanning probe technique. This means that the specimen is imaged by scanning a very sharp tip over its
The Halogen Lamp Fluorescence Microscope produces images of stained tissues, animal and microbiological cell colonies, and pathogens irradiated with light. It utilizes specific wavelengths of light, particularly infrared light, to excite fluorophores in specimens infused with the fluorochrome pigment and thereby generates a highly illuminated image with distinguishable boundaries.
The primary purpose of the halogen lamp fluorescence microscope is to irradiate the specimen with a specific wavelength of light, separate the weaker emitted light from the bright excitation light, and only allow the emitted light to reach the detector. When light reaches the detector, the fluorescent structure of the specimen is superimposed against a deep, dark, almost black background.

A Brief Introduction to Microscopes The microscope is one of the essential lab instruments that help to examine the objects and specimens that cannot be seen
An inverted fluorescent microscope uses fluorescence to study specimens, such as living cells at the bottom of a petri dish or tissue culture. The Inverted Fluorescent Microscope has similar components to those of other microscopes, and the only difference is the arrangement of the parts, which are placed in inverted positions.
The specimen is lit using a halogen lamp as a light source. When light enters the microscope, it strikes a dichroic mirror, reflecting one range of wavelengths while allowing another to pass through. The ultraviolet light is reflected up to the specimen by the dichroic mirror. The UV light causes fluorescence in the specimen’s molecules and the fluorescent-wavelength light generated is collected by the objective lens.

What are Vibrating Microtomes? Before the tissue slicers, scientists had to manually cut biological materials with their tools, which required meticulous work for great precision. With
