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

These stage micrometers are available with a calibration certificate that provides traceability for the precise calibration and confirmation of accuracy of optical measuring instruments, necessary under ISO provisions. The glass discs are mounted in stainless steel slides with engraved serial numbers. Each slide is supplied in a polished wooden storage case. A Certificate of Comparison from Pyser-SGI, Graticules Division compares the scale to a NPL calibrated in-house standards. A statemen is provided on the accuracy of the item with respect to these standards.

Electron Microscopy Sciences S7 England Finder Slide
S7 is a glass slide 75 mm x 26 mm marked over the top surface in a way that a referenced position can be directly read relative to the locating edges. It is marked with a square grid at 1 mm intervals. Each square contains a center ring bearing reference letters and numbers, the remainder of the square is subdivided into four segments numbered 1 to 4.
Reference numbers run horizontally 1 to 75 and letters vertically A to Z (omitting I). The main locating edge is the bottom of the slide, which is used in conjunction with either the left or right vertical edge of the slide.
Using the finder the position of a field of interest is easily recorded, ite can be relocated by another person when using a England Finder on another microscope. The location of the arrows is identical for all England Finder slides. Mark a label on the left hand side of the specimen slide, indicating the orientation. A total of 100 positions can be accurately located.
Dino Lite RK-10A Stable Tabletop Stand with Fine-focus Adjustment and Quick Release
The Dino-Lite RK-10A universal stand is a stable tabletop platform that features precise fine-focus adjustment and is compatible with the complete line of Dino-Lite handheld microscope cameras. The RK-10A quick release button is helpful for fast and convenient vertical movement and fine-focus adjustment knob is especially useful at high magnification. Its adjustable horizontal arm has a 7-inch range with 360-degree rotation and the included optional arm attachment increases its effective range of motion. These features combine to provide complete command and control of microscope orientation and positioning for maximum productivity and ease of use. The RK-10A is composed of resilient stainless steel and lightweight aluminum. Optional accessories are available and sold separately.
Electron Microscopy Sciences EMS Linear (X&Y) Stage Micrometer, Model IAM-2, T/L, Calibrated
A dual axis linear micrometer that can accurately calibrate both X and Y directions without rotation, for optical magnification, and camera aspect ratio using single standard. In addition, it can be used to calibrate and check linear stage motion or related auto measuring systems. Scales are in both English and Metric measurements. Calibrated.
Electron Microscopy Sciences Cellometer™ Disposable Counting Chamber, Plastic Base
These Disposable Cell Counters are an enclosed chamber with two ports for sample introduction. The chamber contains precisely spaced lines in a grid pattern. There are two counting chambers per slide for replicates. The counting grid pattern is the Improved Neubauer, as in a common Hemacytometer. The consistent pattern design allows the standard cell counting procedure to be followed.
