Microscopes

Handling & Care Carrying the Microscope –Carry from the base & arm, use 2 hands! Using the Microscope –Always use tissue paper to clean lenses! Returning the Microscope –Cover & return to correct spot –2 hands

Parts of the Microscope

Safety CordObjectives –Be very careful with focusing Slides –They are glass

Slide Mounts Dry –No liquid used Wet –Add drops of water (usually) – Add slide cover on an angle slowly

Hints for Microscopes To find out the total magnification of the object, multiply the power of the eyepiece lens (usually 10X) by the power of the objective. Always observe specimen beginning with the lowest power objective first. Focus, then move to a higher power objective, if needed.

Hints for Microscopes Use only the fine adjustment knob when using the highest (longest) power objective. To reduce eyestrain, keep both eyes open when looking through the microscope. Also, keep eye a little above the eyepiece when viewing (less eyelash interference).
