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 8 well with 150 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: 150 µl

Ibidi USA Magnetic Lid for µ-Dish Microscopy Rack
Lid fixed with magnetic positioning for additional stabilization. Compatible with the µ-Dish Microscopy Rack. Includes 1 lid for µ-Dish 35mm, High. aluminum, black, Ø 51 x 10.95 mm
Electron Microscopy Sciences TEM Round Grid Mats
White silicone rubber mats, with numbered compartments. Good for organizing grids. They will not slide or jump between compartments. Also ideal for staining grids. Easy to pick up grids without damaging forcep tips.
Electron Microscopy Sciences PremaDisk Diamond Grinding Disc SH Hard Bond, 15 µm Particles, 250 mm diameter
PremaDisk Flexible Diamond Grinding Discs offer superior surface finishes that are usually only seen in lapping processes.
The SM disc is a medium-hard resin bond base for fine grinding and polishing of metals, ceramics and glass.
The SH disc is a hard resin bond base for applications where a very sharp edge must be maintained on the workpiece.
Both discs increase productivity by combining optimum surface quality, removal rates, and tool life in the same process.
Particles: 15 µm
Diameter: 250 mm
Electron Microscopy Sciences Embra Finder 200 mesh Grid, Nickel
Standard 3.05 mm diameter grids which have one straight and one round cut out from the rim which assists in the orientation of the grid.
Grid: Nickel
Electron Microscopy Sciences EMS Platinum Aperture with 50 µm hole, 0.165 mm thick
Platinum apertures are easily cleaned by either an aperture flamer or over a bunsen burner in the open air. We maintain a wide variety of Platinum Drilled Apertures in stock with different configurations suiting all of your needs. Nominal hole diameter: +/- 1 micron. Disc diameter: +/- 10 microns. Disc thickness: +/- 10 microns
Size: 50 µm
O.D.: 4 mm
Thickness: 0.165 mm
World Precision Instrument Pre-polarizer for Nitric Oxide Sensors
Keep extra NO sensors ready to use
Achieve a stable background current quickly. This small battery-powered device applies a potential to the NO electrode equivalent to the potential applied by the ISO-NO meter. Consequently, a sensor which has been connected to the activator may be transferred to the meter for immediate use. For use with all WPI NO electrodes.
Electron Microscopy Sciences Crossed Gauge Lines Microscope Graticule NE 54, 16mm
Use as crossed lines, but for the measuring of distances between thelines. Greater accuracy can be obtained by locatng the specimen detail between the graticules gauge pair.
Size: 16mm
Divisions: Two vertical lines 0.2 mm apart
Electron Microscopy Sciences EMS Platinum Aperture with 15 µm hole, 0.24 mm thick
Platinum apertures are easily cleaned by either an aperture flamer or over a bunsen burner in the open air. We maintain a wide variety of Platinum Drilled Apertures in stock with different configurations suiting all of your needs. Nominal hole diameter: +/- 1 micron. Disc diameter: +/- 10 microns. Disc thickness: +/- 10 microns
Size: 15 µm
O.D.: 3 mm
Thickness: 0.24 mm
Electron Microscopy Sciences EMS Gold Aperture with 10 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: 10 µm
O.D.: 2 mm
Thickness: 0.53 mm
