SCMA*1090 Lecture Notes - Lecture 7: Methylene Blue
Document Summary
Scientific drawings are done to record observations as accurately as possible. Stipple to indicate dark areas: use a ruler to draw horizontal, parallel lines for labels. 6: include a scale bar on the diagram, the area below the diagram should have a description including, the type or preparation (e. g. whole mount, cross-section, longitudinal section, any stains used. Biological drawing of a human epithelial cell under a light microscope (magnification x) Field of view calculation (fov: use a clear ruler to measure the fov in mm on low power and convert to um. 1 mm = 1000 um: calculate fov in um fov = fov on low x magnification on low magnification of objective used. Size of image calculation: estimate the number of times the specimen fits across the field of view, while viewing under the microscope.
