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 CoverWell™ Perfusion Chamber 3 well with 120 µl volume
CoverWell Perfusion Chambers allows up to 16 different specimens on one coverglass. "Press-to-Seal" covers form water-tight, multiwall cell incubation or cytochemistry chamber when pressed to coverslips or microscope slides. Reagents can be quickly added and removed through dual access ports (1.5 mm Dia) without disturbing or cross-contaminating specimens in adjacent wells. Chambers are removable for permanent mounting of specimens. CoverWell chambers are made from medical grade silicone bonded to clear, UV transparent plastic.
Volume: 120 µl
Electron Microscopy Sciences Evaporated Pt/Ir On Holey Carbon
Evaporated Pt/Ir on Holey carbon film. Holey carbon film support provides holes for ease of focus and astigmatism correction. The dots of evaporated Pt/Ir provide dense particles for resolution checks through the particle seperation test.
Electron Microscopy Sciences Grid Storage Box, 100 Capacity
A newly designed grid storage box similar to the original LKB box. Made from a special plastic that minimizes static. Complete with grid recording card.
Electron Microscopy Sciences EMS Dial A Grid-N-Block Storage
24 slots labeled with letters from A-X where the grids can be stored and rotated for easy access as well as 3 additional cavities for block storage.
Electron Microscopy Sciences EMS Silicon Monoxide Film on on 300 mesh Copper Grid
A thin film of pure silicone Monoxide (15 – 30 nm) is deposited directly on top of the grid. All of our coated grids are optically checked followed by batch testing in the EM. Packed in grid storage box. NOTE: All of our film is laid on the shiny side of the grid.
Grid: Copper
Electron Microscopy Sciences C-Flat™ Holey Carbon Grid CF-4/2-4C, 400 mesh Cu
C-flat is an ultra-flat, holey carbon-coated support grid for transmission electron microscopy (TEM). Unlike competing holey carbon films, C-flat is manufactured without plastics, so it is clean upon arrival and the user has no residue to contend with. Made with patent pending technology, C-flat provides an ultra-flat surface that results in better particle dispersion and more uniform ice thickness.
Patterning is done using deep-UV projection lithography, ensuring the most accurate and consistent hole shapes and sizes down to submicron features. The precise methods by which C-flat is manufactured elminate artifacts such as excess carbon and edges around holes.
C-flat holey carbon grids provide the ideal specimen support to achieve high resolution data in making them an ideal choice for cryo single particle analysis, cryo tomography and automated TEM analysis. 4.0 µm holes with 2.0 µm spacing.
Mesh: 400
Material: Copper
Electron Microscopy Sciences Maxtaform 100 Mesh, Cu/Rh
Maxtaform grids with clean and smooth edges, firm support, and a large open area. 3 mm diameter, 0.75 mil thickness. Copper grids with one surface coated with inert Rhodium. This coating will eliminate tarnishing, give side identification, and reduce the bar thickness.
Grid: Cu/Rh

Electron Microscopy Sciences Formvar/Carbon Support Film 25-50 nm/3-4 nm thick on 2X1 mm Slot Grid Gold Grid
A formvar coated grid, stabilized with evaporated carbon film. This type of coating is excellent for specimen support, especially for ultra thin sections. Coated grids are optically checked followed by batch testing in the electron microscope. Packed in grid storage box. NOTE: All film is laid on the shiny side of the grid. Formvar is 25 to 50 nm thick with a 3 to 4 nm carbon coating.
Grid: Gold
Electron Microscopy Sciences Carbon Support Film 5-6 nm thick on Square 400 mesh Copper Grid
A thin film of pure carbon. All of our coated grids are optically checked followed by batch testing in the EM. Packed in grid storage box. NOTE: All of our film is laid on the shiny side of the grid. Standard thickness is 5-6 nm.
