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 Omniprobe TEM, Grid Dual Holder, Aluminum
Post Base TEM Grid Holder. Short post – standard is 1/8" (3.2 mm) diameter x 0.15" (4 mm) length. Aluminum is non-magnetic.
Electron Microscopy Sciences AMD-MF Microscope Workstation, 90 x 75 cm, Stainless Steel Surface
These isolation tables support most of the larger microscopes and their support equipment. The air isolation platform effectively removes most removes most vibrations. The rigid frame has levelling feet which ensure the table is in excellent contact with the floor. The damped rolling diaphragm isolators have a low natural frequency of 2Hz which effectively isolates out vibrations above 6Hz, well below the frequencies at which typical building vibrations begin to occur. Full width table guards.
Size: 90 x 75 cm
Surface: Stainless Steel
Type: Active Air Self Leveling
Electron Microscopy Sciences SEM Hitachi M4 Double 90°, 1" Head with 16 mm Pin, Aluminum
Hitachi double 90 degree SEM mounts are made from lathe finished ultra-pure aluminum.
Head: 1"
Height: 16 mm
Electron Microscopy Sciences MicroMounts™ Crystal Tool with Assortment A1, 25 mm pin
MicroMounts are the high performance tools for manipulating and mounting protein crystals, virus crystals, and small molecule/inorganic crystals, and other small, fragile samples. They are ideal for both conventional and high-throughput X-ray crystallography applications.
Each consist of a thin (7.5um thick) micro-fabricated polyimide film, attached to a solid non-magnetic stainless steel pin. Film is wrapped around the steel pin and it provides excellent stiffness and convenient scoop-like action in retrieving and handling crystals. Includes: 10, 20, 30 and 40 um apertures.
Aperture: 25 mm pin
Electron Microscopy Sciences JEOL SEM Cylinder Mount 1/2" surface 3-Division, 3/8" height, Aluminum
Cylinder specimen mounts are for use with JEOL scanning electron microscopes. The mounts are made from ultra-pure aluminum with a standard lathe finish.
Head: 1/2"
Height: 3/8"
Electron Microscopy Sciences PremaDisk Diamond Grinding Disc SH Hard Bond, 6 µm Particles, 200 mm diameter
PremaDisk Flexible Diamond Grinding Discs offer superior surface finishes that are usually only seen in lapping processes.
The SM disc is a medium-hard resin bond base for fine grinding and polishing of metals, ceramics and glass.
The SH disc is a hard resin bond base for applications where a very sharp edge must be maintained on the workpiece.
Both discs increase productivity by combining optimum surface quality, removal rates, and tool life in the same process.
Particles: 6 µm
Diameter: 200 mm
Electron Microscopy Sciences Omniprobe FIB Lift-Out Grid 5-Post, Copper
Custom copper 5-post lift-out grids specially designed for in-situ lift-out. These grids include multiple indexed mounting locations, all with vertical bars attachment surfaces. Now with lower profile sides for easier access to outermost posts 3 mm diameter.
Material: Copper
Electron Microscopy Sciences SEM Pin Stub Adapter, 15 mm
A simple to use adapter which will convert Hitachi, JEOL or ISI microscopes to use 1/8" pin stubs or Cambridge stubs. Made of aluminum with spring retainers which will give a good connection.
