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 Reference Stage Graticule 75 mmx25 mm Slide
High precision image analysis standard provides four test areas for calibrating image analysis systems and identifying deviations and distortions in optical imaging systems. It is produced on a 75 mm x 25 mm slide and has a square grid accuracy of +/-0.1um and a dot accuracy of +/-0.3um.
The four test areas are:
400 um x 400 um square grid subdivided into 200, 100, 50 and 25 micron squares for detecting gross image distortions and can be used as an accurate two dimensional stage micrometer.
A 20 x 17 array of nominally 15 um diameter dots is used to identify lens distortions.
A root-2 array of spots from 3 um to 48 um diameter is used for determining the threshold levels of cameras and microscopes.
A log-normal distribution array of 100 spots ranging from 4.5 um to 27 um diameter enables the mean and standard deviation to be determined and compared with certified values. This is an idealized distribution of maximum dynamic range for a full screen.

Electron Microscopy Sciences Chalkley Point Array Graticle NG52, 16mm
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.
