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 Quantifoil Holey Carbon Film R 1.2/1.3 on Copper 400 mesh Grid
QUANTIFOIL is a perforated support foil with pre-defined hole size, shape and arrangement. It has advantages in electron microscopy (EM) or low-energy electron point source (LEEPS) microscopy when compared with conventional holey film.
QUANTIFOIL with circular holes is used in cryo-electron tomographic reconstruction. The roundness of the holes is advantageous with respect to the formation of an ice layer of constant thickness. The whole size chosen depends on the magnification used, and on whether or not one wishes to include support film in the image. Assessment of the image quality is easier when foil is included in the picture, because the power spectrum of a foil is stronger than that of unsupported ice.
Grid: Copper
Mesh: 400
Electron Microscopy Sciences Tripod Polisher Heater Block
Designed to hold any of the Lbrackets while being heated on a hot plate prior to mounting sample melted wax. Provides a slow, uniform temperature gradient, which minimizes thermal shock. - For use with Tripod Polisher.

Electron Microscopy Sciences Kellner Wide-Field Eyepiece, X10
Focusing eyepiece with high eye point (useful for spectacle wearers). Non -focusing wide field.
Electron Microscopy Sciences Huygenian Eyepiece, X7
Focusing eyepiece composed of two plano convex lenses, separated by an air space. The image plane is between the two lenses. The top lens is adjusted to bring the graticule into focus.
Ace Glass, Inc. Reflector assembly only, order reflector adapted lamps separately
