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 Gilder Finder Grid F1, 200 mesh Nickel Grid
Used to identify specific areas of mesh by an alphabetical or numerical code built into the mesh. 3.05 mm diameter, 0.7 mil (18 um) thickness. Series has thick bars dividing regions into 6 thin bar areas identified by a numeric system.
Grid: Nickel
Pitch: 125 µm
Hole: 90-100 µm
Bar: 35-12 µm
Electron Microscopy Sciences EMS Gold Aperture with 15 µm hole, 2 mm O.D., 0.53 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: 15 µm
O.D.: 2 mm
Thickness: 0.53 mm
Electron Microscopy Sciences Hi-Intensity UV Filter
A 5" (12.5cm) diameter black light filter which is recesses in the head of the HI-Intensity UV Lamp.
Electron Microscopy Sciences V4 Quality, 15 x 15 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 deg. C & for Phlogopite is about 800-900 deg. 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. Good Stained. Hard, uniform color, may contain med. waves slight crystallographic discoloration, & med. air inclusion in not more than two-third of usable area.

Electron Microscopy Sciences BEEM Dial-A-Grid & Block Storage
Two tone color coded plastic box with insert which has 24 letter-labeled crossed slots and 2 cavities for block storage. A rotating protection plate covers the slots and allows for exposure of one grid at a time. There are two additional cavities for block storage. BEEM Is A Registered Trademark of Better Equipment For Electron Microscopy, Inc.
Electron Microscopy Sciences TEM-Specimen SB50 Grid Box
TEM grid storage box for routine handling and long term storage of 50 standard size TEM grids. Ergonomic design incorporates several features that overcome the disadvantages associated with storage boxes of the more conventional ʽsliding cover' design. Unique number on the face and on one end.
Blue arrow at the 12 o'clock position indicates the park position for the cover when not in use. This is a firm grip "click" position and cannot be moved accidentally, preventing spillage. Clear cover can be rotated smoothly through 360 deg once the slight initial resistance of the park position has been overcome exposing a maximum of 2 or 3 diamond shaped slots at any one time. The 50 diamond shaped slots have an alphanumeric referencing system.
Each box is supplied with an index record card. Designed to be stacked. Base made of ABS-PHAT and cover of CAB.
