What Is the Tungsten Monocular Microscope Used For?

This is a straightforward teaching microscope for standard school practicals: onion peel and cheek cells, leaf stomata, root tips, pollen, protozoa in pond water and prepared tissue slides. Students locate the specimen with the 4x/0.10 objective, move to the 10x/0.25 to see how the tissue is arranged, and finish with the 40x/0.65S for cell detail. The pointer in the eyepiece lets a teacher mark the exact structure each student should find.

Tungsten lamps run warm, so switch the light off between observations and let the microscope cool before covering or packing it away. Use the iris diaphragm with the 0.65 NA condenser to balance brightness and contrast: close it for pale, unstained cells and open it for darker stained sections. On the plain stage the slide is moved gently by hand, which quickly teaches students how the image moves under magnification.

What to Specify When Ordering

Does this tungsten microscope have fine focusing?
Yes. The Monocular Microscope, Tungsten has coarse and fine focusing. Use the coarse control with the 4x objective to find the specimen, then only the fine control at 40x, where the depth of focus is very shallow and the slide sits close to the lens.

What kind of stage does the Monocular Microscope, Tungsten have?
The Monocular Microscope, Tungsten has a plain stage, so the slide is positioned by hand rather than by a mechanical stage. This keeps the instrument simple for younger students, who soon learn to move the slide opposite to the way the image moves.

The WF10X/18 mm eyepiece of the Monocular Microscope, Tungsten includes a pointer visible in the field of view. A teacher can place a structure at the tip of the pointer so every student who looks next sees exactly the feature being discussed.
