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 Pyrex Plate, 9 cavity Pyrex pressed plate
A 9 cavity Pyrex pressed plate which offers a clear view for observation by transmitted light. The plate measures: 4"(L) x 3 3/8"(W) (100x85 mm). The cavity is 1/4"(6.4 mm) deep with a 7/8" (22 mm) opening.
Electron Microscopy Sciences Stage Micrometer S1, Horizontal Scale, 10 mm Length
Stage graticules are used for the routine calibration of eyepiece patterns, particularly when alternating between objectives on one microscope or when using the same graticule in different microscopes. Their robust construction makes them ideal for student use and for instructional purposes. The scale or grid is centered on a glass disc mounted in a black anodized aluminum slide 75 mm x 24 mm x 2 mm thick.
Scale: Horizontal
Length: 10 mm
Divisions: 100 each 0.1 mm
Electron Microscopy Sciences Cargille Microscope Immersion Oil Type A 120 ML
Cargille PCB-Free Immersion oils were introduced in 1972. Today, no other immersion oil meets FDA criteria. Viscosity 150 cSt for normal light microscopy.
Density: @ 23°C: .923 g/cc
Electron Microscopy Sciences Cargille Microscope Immersion Oil Type NVH Oil 1 OZ
Cargille PCB-Free Immersion oils were introduced in 1972. Today, no other immersion oil meets FDA criteria. For horizontal, inverted and inclined instruments and projection equipment where higher viscosities are generally required. Type NVH meets the requirement, having a viscosity of 21,000cST.
Density: @ 23°C: 0.919 g/cc
Electron Microscopy Sciences Cargille Microscope Type 37 Immersion Oil 1 OZ
Cargille PCB-Free Immersion oils were introduced in 1972. Today, no other immersion oil meets FDA criteria. Cargille 37 Immersion Oils have an index of 1.515 at 37 deg C. Consideration of these oils is also suggested where stage temperatures are elevated by sub-stage illuminators and high wattage projection equipment.
Density: @ 23°C: 0.917 g/cc
Electron Microscopy Sciences EMS Strip Aperture Hitachi, 10-10-20-70 µm holes, 41.0 x 4.0 x 0.10 mm
Strip apertures made from Platinum-Iridium (95:5).
Holes: 10-10-20-70 µm
Dimensions: 41.0 x 4.0 x 0.10 mm
Electron Microscopy Sciences Immersion Cedar Wood Oil 100 ML
Refractive Index 20 degree C 1.515-1.520. Used as an immersion oil.
Electron Microscopy Sciences EMS Strip Aperture Hitachi, 70-70-50-50m, 41.0 x 4.0 x 0.10 mm
Strip apertures made from Platinum-Iridium (95:5).
Holes: 70-70-50-50m
Dimensions: 41.0 x 4.0 x 0.10 mm
Electron Microscopy Sciences EMS Gold Aperture with 200 µm hole, 3 mm O.D., 0.24 mm thick
Advanced techniques of thin metal film application permits the apertures to retain a clean hole edge during prolonged beam exposure. Ultra-thin, half-micron design discourages contaminant accumulation and stabilizes astigmatic conditions to provide longer life. Conventional mechanical cleaning involving costly down-time is no longer necessary. Because the foil is ultra thin, care must be taken when handling the gold foil apertures.
Size: 200 µm
O.D.: 3 mm
Thickness: 0.24 mm
