Document Summary

Series of lenses and uses visible light as source of illumination. Ground lenses: forms focused image that is many times larger than the specimen itself. Light rays from illuminator (light source) pass through a condenser (has lenses that direct the light rays through the specimen). Light rays pass through objective lenses (lenses closest to the specimen) image of the specimen is magnified by ocular lenses. Multiply the objective lens maginification (power) by the ocular lens magnification (power) Ability of the lenses to distinguish fine detail and structure. Examine live microorganisms that are either invisible in the ordinary light microscope. Distorted by staining therefore characteristics cannot be identified. Permits detailed examination of internal structures in living microorganisms. Absorbs uv light and emits visible light. Evaluate cellular physiology by monitoring the distributions and concentrations of substances such as atp and calcium ions. Aqueous or alcohol solution of a single basic dye.
