Summary
Microscopy and staining techniques are key tools in biology and microbiology. Students get a chance to test their knowledge of these topics with a set of quiz questions.
Microscope Measurements
Students convert measurements from micrometers to nanometers and millimeters. The visible light wavelengths are given.
Microscope Types and Parts
The compound light microscope is described. Students identify the functions of different parts of a compound microscope.
Staining Techniques
Simple and differential stains are defined. Students identify stains used for specific bacteria and situations. The use of special stains is discussed.
Electron Microscopy
Scanning and transmission electron microscopy are compared. Students learn about the resolving power of the transmission electron microscope.
Key terms
- resolution
- The ability to distinguish two close objects as separate.
- condenser
- A part of a light microscope that focuses light on the sample.
- total magnification
- The combined magnification of the objective lens and ocular lens.
- differential stain
- A staining technique using two or more dyes to separate organisms into categories.
- fluorescent microscopy
- A type of microscopy that uses fluorescent light to visualize cellular structures.
- electron microscopy
- A type of microscopy that uses an electron beam to view samples.
