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 X-Checker™ Calibration Aid for SEM/EDS Extra
The X-Checker was the first and remains the only complete calibration aid for SEM/EDS Systems. Each X-Checker comes with manganese to measure full width at half max detector resolution, aluminum and copper to perform spectral calibration, and carbon to monitor calibration at the low end of the spectra for thin window detectors. You also get two grid sizes for checking the accuracy of your image analysis software and an easy test for monitoring the amount of vacuum pump oil contamination on your detector window. With: manganese, aluminum and copper, carbon, a fluorine source.

Electron Microscopy Sciences Walton & Beckett Graticule G25, 19 mm,
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. Based on the G22. The G25 is produced by the Institute of Occupational Health.
Size: 19 mm
Electron Microscopy Sciences Weilbel 1 Graticle NGW1, 21mm
Consists of 15 lines of equal length connecting the verticals of a regular hexagonal point network. Reference: E.R.Weibel Lab. Invest. Vol. 22 pp 131-152. "Principal and Methods for the Morphometric Study of the Lung and other Organs."
Size: 21 mm
Electron Microscopy Sciences Weibel 2 Graticle NGW2, 19mm
Used when making a surface to volume ratio of a structure per mass unit. This graticule consists of a number of short lines with interruptions as long as the lines. Basically, the number of intersections falling over the short lines is counted and the number of endpoints falling on the end of the structure is determined. Reference: E.R. Weibel, Journal of Microscopy Vol. 95. pp 373-378. Current Capabilities and Limitations of Available Sterrological Technique, point counting method.
Size: 19 mm
Electron Microscopy Sciences Chalkley Point Array Graticle NG52, 19mm
Eyepiece graticle is used to quickly determine the relationship of components to each other using random sampling. Curtis gives an example of its application, where a researcher may want to see whether or not a certain drug affects the volume proportion of cell types in a given organ. With this graticule the proportion of points lying over the image of one type of component is statistically proportional to the area occupied by that component. The 25 points of the array are placed over the field of view at random, so that a comparison can be made between the number of points touching the one type of component, with number touching the other type of component in each viewing. A series of observations will yield an increasingly accurate ratio of the comparative incidence of each type of particle.
Size: 19 mm
Electron Microscopy Sciences Tripod Polisher Parallel Polishing Mount Stainless Steel
Parallel Polishing Mount (S. Steel) - For use with Tripod Polisher Model 590.
Electron Microscopy Sciences Thompson Graticle G23, 16mm
For counting particles in any of three areas of known size. The graticule is calibrated in the same manner as a normal eyepiece scale. The result is then used to calculate the area of any square.
Size: 16mm
Divisions: 10 mm, 7 mm and 4 mm squares
Electron Microscopy Sciences SEM Tin On Carbon Medium Resolution Test Specimen, 12.5 mm Stub
Tin on Carbon is an alternate test specimen for medium resolution, and for the daily basic checking of your instrument performance. This specimen consists of a dispersion of tin spheres, within the size range 10 - 40 nm, on a carbon substrate. Ideal for astigmatism correction, it is also recommended for use in SEM's employed in the semi-conductor industry where the usual gold on carbon specimen cannot be used because of the risk of gold poisoning.
Type: 12.5 mm Stub
