Microscope Accessories and Replacement Parts
General accessories and parts for use with microscopes. Products include lens oil, lens cleaner, slide dispensers, microscope covers, vessel holders, light cubes, and flow cells.
Many parts of your microscope can be updated or replaced including microscope lamps, lenses, and eyepieces. Replacement lamps, light sources, and power cords can extend the working lives of your microscopy equipment. New or replacement objectives and lenses can help increase the total magnification available with your microscope.
Add greater magnification or exchange your eyepiece for one with a reticule to more easily estimate the sizes of the items being viewed.
Replace or update your mechanical stage or clamps or add cell culture vessel adapters to facilitate specimen positioning.
Condensers can also be replaced, and conversion kits are available to add phase contrast, polarization, fluorescence, or other capabilities to your current system.
Some microscopes can be adapted for use with still or video cameras. Look for cameras and adapters designed for your specific microscope brand. Film and documentation-related products may also be available to support your record-keeping.
Temporary, semi-permanent, and more long-term slide storage options include:
- Slide racks that securely hold slides during staining procedures
- Folding fiberboard or plastic slide holders with horizontal indentations that keep microscope slides in place
- Slide storage boxes with vertical dividers; made from fiberboard, plastic, and wood and available in multiple sizes
- Slide holders and mailers for transporting slides safely
- Slide storage systems and cabinets for large quantities of slides or archival storage
Electron Microscopy Sciences Pharmaceutical PSA Pattern Graticle G-57, 24.5 mm, Glass sandwich
This graticule was designed for the pharmaceutical industry. However, it is also useful where particle size considerations are restricted to 10 mm and 25 mm. Dots and circles give quick references for these two sizes. In addition a scale is incorporated. The microscope must be calibrated when ordering this graticule, such that the circle must equate to 1 mm on the microscope stage.
Size: 24.5 mm
Surface: Glass sandwich
Electron Microscopy Sciences Concentric Circles Microscope Graticle NE44, 23 mm, 10 circles 1 mm-10 mm
Can be used for two-way measurement when calibrated as a micrometer. There are 10 concentric circles 1mm-10mm in diameter. Surface chrome image.
Size: 23 mm
Electron Microscopy Sciences Grain Sizing Reticle NG61, 25 mm
For the determination of non-metallic inclusion content of steel. NG60 meets EN 10247 and NG61 Meets ISO 4976. Both are scaled for use eith 10x objective magnification Pattern
Size: 25 mm
Method: ISO 4967
Electron Microscopy Sciences Grain Sizing Reticle NG61, 27 mm
For the determination of non-metallic inclusion content of steel. NG60 meets EN 10247 and NG61 Meets ISO 4976. Both are scaled for use eith 10x objective magnification Pattern
Size: 27 mm
Method: ISO 4967
Electron Microscopy Sciences K-kits Copper Grid
Ten pieces of Copper Grid per pack. Used with the K-kit for TEM observation of liquid samples.
Electron Microscopy Sciences Walton & Beckett Graticule G22, 25 mm, 3:1 ratio
The Walton and Beckett graticule is for counting fibrous dust (asbestos or glass fibers) and particularly where the majority of fibers to be counted are shorter than 5 microns. The circle is divided into four by two diametrical lines scaled in units of 5 and 3 microns respectively. 3 and 5 microns are the critical measurements of fiber lengths and diameters used in fiber counting. Walton and Beckett include shapes with an aspect ratio of 3:1 or 5:1 for comparing to fibers.
IMPORTANT NOTE: The circle on these Walton & Beckett graticules must represent 100 microns at the stage and each one must be manufactured to the individual instrument. 3:1 ratio is useful where the majority of fibers to be counted are shorter than 5 um.

Electron Microscopy Sciences K-kits Liquid TEM Kit, 2.0 µm Gap
An Innovative Enclosed Specimen Holder for Liquid TEM. K-kits are sample holders designed to facilitate convenient TEM observation of liquid samples, allowing nanoobjects, aggregates, and agglomerates (NOAAs) in liquid samples to be characterized. With vacuum compatible sealing of liquids in electron-transmitting thickness, K-kits are micro reaction chambers for countless experiments in materials, chemical, and biological research.
Gap: 2.0 µm
Electron Microscopy Sciences Whipple Grid Graticle NE29, 25 mm, 100 squares in 7 mm
Originally designed for water particle analysis, but may be used for other aspects of particle counting. Grid showed: Ratio of full square to smallest is 50:1. Area is 2500:1. Reference: Microscopy of Drinking Water.
Size: 25 mm
Divisions: 100 squares in 7 mm
