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 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 Microscope Graticule NE1 Horizontal, 23 mm, 10 mm with 0.1 mm subdivisions
These scales are used for the measuring of lengths of specimen or distances between points on a variety of different shaped objects. By dividing the division of the chosen graticule by the magnification of the objective one obtains an approximate value that each division will represent on the stage. Horizontal micrometer scale.
Size: 23 mm

Electron Microscopy Sciences Pharmaceutical PSA Pattern Graticle G-57, 19 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: 19 mm
Surface: Glass sandwich
Ibidi USA Tubing sets. BLUE; length 15 cm, ID 0.8 mm, 10 ml reservoirsPcs./Box: 4 (individually packed)
Ready to use tubing sets for flow assays with the ibidi Pump System. Includes tubing and resvoirs to perform flow assays in combination with the ibidi Channel Slides and Fluidic Units. Product Variation: BLUE; length 15 cm, ID 0.8 mm, 10 ml reservoirsPcs./Box: 4 (individually packed)
Ted Pella Inc Lacey Carbon Type-A, 300 mesh, Copper, 25/pk
A Lacey carbon film with a removable Formvar backing on the opposite side of the grid. When the Formvar is removed, by dipping in solvent, the Lacey carbon film remains. These films are stable under all EM operating conditions and for use where the presence of Formvar can not be tolerated. Pure Lacey Carbon is more delicate than those with Formvar backing and require more careful handling during specimen preparation. Holes are completely open.
Electron Microscopy Sciences Shorter Pin SEM Stub Slotted 38 mm head with 6 mm Pin, Aluminum, 1/8" Pin diameter
SEM stub specimen mount with shorter pin (6 mm) and 38 mm slotted head for use with Zeiss/LEO scanning electron microscopes, FE-SEMs & FIB systems. Made from ultra-pure aluminum with a standard lathe finish.

Ibidi USA µ-Slide Microscopy Rack
µ-Slide Microscopy rack is a aluminum rack made to hold 4 µ-Slides for analysis of multiple samples. The multiwell format is compatible with all inverted microscopes. Magnetic Lids sold seperately. aluminum, black, 127.5 x 85.5 x 12 mm
Electron Microscopy Sciences C-Flat™ Holey Carbon Grid CF-1.2/1.3-4C, 400 mesh Cu
C-flat is an ultra-flat, holey carbon-coated support grid for transmission electron microscopy (TEM). Unlike competing holey carbon films, C-flat is manufactured without plastics, so it is clean upon arrival and the user has no residue to contend with. Made with patent pending technology, C-flat provides an ultra-flat surface that results in better particle dispersion and more uniform ice thickness.
Patterning is done using deep-UV projection lithography, ensuring the most accurate and consistent hole shapes and sizes down to submicron features. The precise methods by which C-flat is manufactured elminate artifacts such as excess carbon and edges around holes.
C-flat holey carbon grids provide the ideal specimen support to achieve high resolution data in making them an ideal choice for cryo single particle analysis, cryo tomography and automated TEM analysis. 1.2 µm holes with 1.3 µm spacing.
Mesh: 400
