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 V5 Quality, 50 x 75 mm, 0.15- 0.21 mm thick
EMS Mica Sheets offer a clean surface for EM applications, carbon filming & particle spraying, as well as for AFM applications. There are 2 types of mica: muscovite & phlogopite. Generally, one differs from the other by color (Muscovite is Ruby, Green or White; Phlogopite is Amber, Yellow, or Silver). The maxoperating temp.for Muscovite is about 500-600 degree C & for Phlogopite is about 800-900 degree C. Our line consists of High Quality Muscovite Mica. This mica peels off very thin up to 0.0001" uniform layers, exposing "virgin" mica upon splitting.
Muscovite, potash type mica, sometimes known as granitic mica, is the best of all micas in dielectric strength, perfection of cleavage, & transparency. It has the chemical formula: H2KAI3(Si04)3. Stained A Quality. Hard, med. air inclusions uniformly distributed in usable area; slight green vegetable stains, med. waviness, & heavy waves if specified.
Quality: V5
Size: 50 x 75 mm
Thickness: 0.15- 0.21 mm
Electron Microscopy Sciences SEM High Resolution Gold on Carbon Test Specimen, JEOL Stub
The gold on carbon specimen is for resolution test of SE and BSE imaging and also for chemical mapping in high-resolution systems such as an Auger scanning instrument. Each test specimen has a square grid pattern with large crystals in the center of each square, and very fine crystals at the edges of each grid somedium and high resolution gap tests are performed on the same specimen. The larger crystals facets are used to assess the gray level reproduction at high resolution. Gold particles range from approximately 5nm to 150 nm.
Mount: JEOL Stub
Abcam TMCB, Selective CK2 inhibitor, 10MG
MW 534.82 Da, Purity >98%. CK2 inhibitor (Ki = 0.25 μM), more selective than DMAT. Unlike DMAT, TMCB displays selectivity over PIM1, HIPK2 and DYRK1a (Ki values are 8.65, 15.25 and 11.90 μM, respectively) and a more favourable selectivity profile over a range of other kinases.
The product is subject to the following: Abcam Restricted Use Statement
Electron Microscopy Sciences Microscope Graticule NE5 Horizontal, 16 mm, 5 mm with 0.05 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. Vertical micrometer scale.
Size: 16 mm
Electron Microscopy Sciences SEM Hitachi Single Mount Storage Tube
A plastic tube and plug for M4 threaded Hitachi mounts. 15 mm in diameter Tube. A 15 mm Hitachi mount can be inserted securely to the plug and then protected by the tube. Ideal for storage as well as mailing. The internal diameter of the tube is 0.83"(21 mm). The Outer measurements of the tube are: 0.9" (23 mm) x2.05” H (52 mm)
Electron Microscopy Sciences Lacey Carbon Film with Ultrathin Carbon 3 nm thick on 200 mesh Copper Grid
The continuous ultrathin carbon film on lacey carbon allows for the thinnest support film that still has adequate strength to withstand electron microscope specimen preparation. The less than 3nm thick film lies across a carbon lacey film supported by a mesh grid. The size of the holes in the lacey film differ widely from batch to batch but are generally in the range of ¼ µm to 5µm, which gives the equivalent support of at least 6000 mesh grid.
Specimen material lying over the covered holes can be imaged in the TEM with practically no interference from the carbon film supporting it. This product is ideal for looking at nanotubes, virus particles and other small particulate material.
Grid: Copper
Electron Microscopy Sciences EMS Gold Aperture with 30 µm hole, 3 mm O.D., 0.12 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: 30 µm
O.D.: 3 mm
Thickness: 0.12 mm

Electron Microscopy Sciences S60 Howard Cell for Fruit Juices
The Howard cell is a glass slide 76 mm x 35 mm with a central circular island and is used for counting mold fibers and spores in fruit juices, especially from tomatoes. With the K20 coverglass in place a 0.1 mm thickness of liquid is contained over the central island. The coverglass has 25 calibrated fields of 1.382 mm diameter through which to view the particles. This coverglass removes the necessity of precise adjustment of the microscope and eyepiece graticule in the original Howard method.
