Laboratory 1
Light Microscope
Eyepiece
Contains a magnifying lens that you
look through.
Body Tube
Connects the eyepiece to the
revolving nosepiece.
Revolving Nosepiece
Holds and turns objectives into
viewing position.
High Power Objective
Contains the lens with the most
magnification.
Low Power Objective
Contains the lens with the least
magnification.
Arm
Supports the body tube.
Stage
Platform used to support the
microscope slide.
Stage Clips
Holds the slide in place on the stage.
Diaphragm
Regulates the amount of light
entering the body tube.
Coarse Adjustment
Focuses the image under LOW
POWER only!
Fine Adjustment
Sharpens the image under high or low
magnification. “Fine Tunes” the
image!
Light Source
Allows light to reflect upward
through the diaphragm, the specimen
and the lenses.
Base
Provides support for the microscope.
Condenser
The substage condenser gathers light
from the microscope light source and
concentrates it into a cone of light that
illuminates the specimen with uniform
intensity over the entire viewfield. It is
critical that the condenser light cone be
properly adjusted to optimize the
intensity and angle of light entering the
objective front lens.
Steps in Focusing
Microscope
1. Select low power objective and make sure
the stage is lowered to its bottom
position.
2. Place the slide on the stage.
3. Secure the slide with the stage clips.
4. While looking at the stage, use the
coarse adjustment knob to move the
stage up to its highest position.
5. Focus with the COARSE ADJUSTMENT
KNOB.
Steps in Focusing
Microscope
6. Continue to focus with the FINE
ADJUSTMENT KNOB.
7. After you have the specimen in a clear
focus, change to the high power
objective.
8. Focus with the FINE ADJUSTMENT
KNOB ONLY!!!
***NEVER EVER EVER EVER USE THE
COARSE ADJUSTMENT KNOB WHEN
USING THE HIGH POWER
OBJECTIVE!!!
Steps in Focusing
Microscope
When you are done viewing your
specimen…
9. Switch back to the low power
objective.
10.Make sure stage is lowered to its
bottom position again.
11. Remove the slide from the stage.
Making A Wet Mount Slide…
1. Clean the slide and cover slip if
needed.
2. Place a small drop of water in the
center of the slide.
3. Center the specimen in the water.
4. Place the end of a probe in the
water.
Making a Wet Mount Slide…
5. Gently drop the cover slip onto the
probe.
6. Slowly drag the probe through the
water and out from under the cover
slip.
7. Check for air bubbles.
8. Clean the slide and cover slip when
you are finished.
