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 EMS25 TEM Grid Storage Box, Numbered 25 Slots
The EMS25 is a small capacity grid storage box, designed as a low cost alternative to larger grid boxes where extra storage capacity is not required. The box has a sliding cover, allowing access to 5 slots at a time. Each diamond shaped hole is capable of storing a 3.05 mm or 2.3 mm diameter grid. Storage referencing is managed via recessed alpha numeric indexing on the sides of the box.
The box contains two side features, allowing for easier handling during specimen removal, as well as a matt strip for extra notation. The boxes come with a durable 25 column card for record keeping. Our grid boxes are intended for use in both routine grid handling and for long term grid storage. Their compact flat shape and low cost make them well suited for the transportation of coated grid products and for the long term storage of catalogued specimens.
Capacity: 25 slots
Electron Microscopy Sciences SEM Stub Freeze Dry Holder
Our aluminum stub holder offers many uses, including holding " (3.1 mm) pin stubs for freeze drying. Has a diameter of 3.1 mm and holds five pin stubs.
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 Gilder Thin Bar Square 600 mesh Copper Grid
Very fine mesh grids have up to 2,000 lines/inch. There is an increasing need in TEM for support films, routinely carbon, as thin as 1.5 - 2.0 nm. The pitch (the distance from the center of one bar to the center of the next bar) dimension in all grids remains constant, allowing use as a lower magnification calibration aid.
Apart from one side being shiny, the other matt, there is a large asymmetrical mark in the rim which gives the identification of which side the specimen is on. Grids are 3.05 mm overall diameter; 2.05 mm mesh area diameter. With 5 µm bars more of the specimen can be viewed then in standard grids.
Grid: Copper
Pitch: 42 µm
Hole: 37 µm
Bar: 5 µm
