MICROSCOPES
My work, which I've done for a long time, was not pursued in
order to gain the praise I now enjoy,
but chiefly from a craving after knowledge, which I notice
resides in me more than in most other men.
Whenever I found out anything remarkable, I have thought it
my duty to put down my discovery on paper,
so that all people might be informed thereof.
Antony van Leeuwenhoek. Letter of June 12, 1716

INTRODUCTION TO MICROSCOPY
• Understanding the optical
principles and
construction of
microscopes
• Role of microscopy
• Microscopic techniques
and application
6
DEFINITION
• A microscope (Greek: micron = small and
scopos = aim)
• MICROSCOPE - An instrument for viewing
objects that are too small to be seen by the
naked or unaided eye
• MICROSCOPY - The science of investigating
small objects using such an instrument is
called microscopy
7
HISTORICAL BACKGROUND
• 1590 - Hans Janssen and his son Zacharias
Janssen, developed first microscope.
• 1609 - Galileo Galilei - occhiolino or compound
microscope.
• 1620 - Christian Huygens, another Dutchman,
developed a simple 2-lens ocular system that
was chromatically corrected.
8
Anton van Leeuwenhoek
(1632-1723)
• Anton van Leeuwenhoek is
generally credited with
bringing the microscope to
the attention of biologists.
• A tradesman of Delft, Holland.
 1661 - He discovered bacteria, free-living
and parasitic microscopic protists, sperm
cells, blood cells, microscopic nematodes
etc.

Microscope used by Anton von
Leeuwenhoek
An old pocket Microscope
USES OF MICROSCOPE
• Magnification of an object.
• Maximization of resolution
• To give contrast between structures, organisms and
background.
11
VARIABLES
USED IN
MICROSCOPY

MAGNIFICATION
• Degree of enlargement
• No of times the length, breadth
or diameter, of an object is
multiplied.

PARTS OF COMPOUND MICROSCOPE
18
EYE PIECE
• Forms magnified virtual & erect
image
• TYPES
(a) Monocular
(b) Binocular
(c) Trinocular
19
OBJECTIVE LENS
• It forms magnified real image.
Mounted on Nose piece
Scan - 4X
Low Power - 10X
High Power - 40X
Oil immersion - 100X
TYPES
20
Light Path
• Light enters objective lens
• Collect light from specimen
• Forms a magnified inverted
image
• Image magnified by ocular lens
& passed to eye
• Total magnification (40x X 10x =
400x)
• Parfocal
Oil Immersion Lens
• Light bends (refracts) as it passes
from glass into air
• Some light does not enter this
smaller objective lens
• Use oil between slide and 100x lens
• Displaces air between lens and
specimen
• Glass and oil have same RI so
less bending
• Oil becomes part of the optics of
glass
• Increases resolution
23
ILLUMINATION - Lamp, sunlight, battery operated
lamp, 60 W bulb, Quartz halogen light.
FILTERS - Blue, Green, Heat absorbing filters,
Barrier filters.
24
HOW A MICROSCOPE WORKS ?
25
METHOD OF USING COMPOUND
MICROSCOPE
26
1. Grasp the microscopes arm with one hand
and place your other hand under the base.
2. Place the microscope on a bench. Adjust seat
3. Clean Lenses.
4. Turn the coarse adjustment knob to raise the
body tube
arm
arm
27
5. Revolve the nose piece to set low-
power objective lens.
6. Adjust the Condenser lenses and
diaphragm .
7. Place a slide on the stage and secure
with stage clips.
8. Switch on the light at low intensity and
then increase intensity.
28
9. Turn the coarse
adjustment knob to lower
the body tube until the low
power objective reaches
its lowest point.
10. Looking through the eyepiece, very slowly move
the coarse adjustment knob until the specimen
comes into focus.
11. Adjust distance between eye piece.
29
12. Switch to the high power objective lens only
after adjusting condenser and iris diaphragm.
13. Place a drop of oil over specimen before using
oil immersion objective.
14. Lower the objective until oil makes contact with
objective.
15. Looking through the eyepiece, very slowly
focus the objective away from the slide i.e by
raising the objective lens.
30
HOW TO OBSERVE A SLIDE ?
31
CAUSES OF ERROR IN
FOCUSING
• Revolving Nose Piece is off centre
• Preparation is upside down
• Thick cover slip
• Dirt or Dried oil over Lens
• Air bubble in immersion oil
• Poor illumination – Condenser not fully racked up
Smear of gram positive bacteria with cocci and
bacilli shape, under 100X light microscope.
DARK FIELD MICROSCOPY
• special condenser diaphragm
• occludes direct light,
passes wide angle light
• angle too wide to enter
objective
34
PHASE CONTRAST MICROSCOPE
35
PHASE CONTRAST MICROSCOPE
• First described in 1934 by Dutch physicist Frits Zernike
• Produces high-contrast images of transparent
specimens
• Advantage - Living cells can be examined in their natural
state
36
USES OF PHASE CONTRAST
MICROSCOPY
• Phase contrast enables visualization of internal cellular
components.
• Diagnosis of tumor cells .
• Examination of growth, dynamics, and behavior of a
wide variety of living cells in cell culture
