BRESSER Set Microscope Slides

Slides and cover glasses are an indispensable accessory which has also impact on the image quality. For most biological microscopes, the cover glass thickness is an important optical parameter, which is therefore included in the optical design and, if so, printed on the sleeve of every objective. You can usually see the number 0.17 which is the thickness in millimeters. For demanding applications in the laboratory, or for microphotography, using cover glasses with the desired thickness and high quality is necessary.The cover glasses included in the set are made of Boro 3.3 glass and are standardized to a thickness of 0.16-0.19mm. So they match the desired 0.17mm really good and give the best possible image quality. These Boro 3.3 cover glasses are pure white, without streaks and are pre-cleaned and ready to use. They are also especially suitable for fluorescence microscopy.The slides are made of soda lime glass, and have ground edges for safe handling. They have a matte field for writing on both sides (top and bottom). Slides and cover glasses are packed separately and in a vacuum sealed bag, containing moisture absorbent. They can be stored for a long time without loss of quality from hydrolysis and are easy to take out.

What Are Common Microscope Types?

Diving into the world of microscopes, you’ll find a variety of types each tailored to specific needs and applications. From the budding scientist in a school lab to the dedicated researcher in a professional setting, our range of microscopes is designed to bring the unseen world into focus. With decades of experience in optics, we know exactly what each user needs. Here is a short overview of important microscope types:

Incident Light Microscopes: Incident light microscopes are designed for viewing specimens from above, ideal for examining solid or opaque specimens. Their versatility makes them a staple in many fields including biology and material science.
Transmitted Light Microscopes: These microscopes use light passing through the sample, providing detailed views of transparent or semi-transparent specimens. They are key in fields like histology and pathology.
Stereo Microscopes: Stereo microscopes, with their dual eyepieces, are perfect for dissecting or examining the surface details of objects. They impress with a more plastic image.
Digital Microscopes: Marrying technology with microscopy, digital microscopes come with built-in cameras, making them ideal for documentation and sharing images. They're a favourite among tech-savvy users and educators.
Inverted Microscopes: Inverted microscopes, also known as inverse microscopes, are specialized for viewing samples from below. They are especially suited for observing living cells or tissues in culture flasks.
Student Microscopes: Ideal for beginners, student microscopes are user-friendly and affordable. They provide the essential features needed for educational purposes. Key aspects include ease of use, durability, and clear imaging.
Laboratory Microscopes: Designed for advanced users, laboratory microscopes come with more sophisticated features. These are perfect for detailed research work, offering superior optics.

What Microscopy Accessories Are Useful?

The right microscopy accessories can significantly enhance your microscopy experience. From preparing your slides to capturing the perfect image, BRESSER UK has you covered. We offer:

High-quality Slides & Cover Plates: Essential for specimen preparation, these are the first steps towards a clear view.
Preparations: First-rate pre-made slides are available for those who are just starting out or for educational purposes.
Eyepieces & Objectives: Upgrading your microscope eyepieces and microscope objectives can drastically improve the quality of your observations.
Filters & Condensers: These components are crucial for adjusting the light and contrast, allowing for clearer and more detailed images.
Cameras & Illumination: Microscope cameras, including USB and HDMI options, are perfect for capturing and sharing your findings. Proper illumination is key to achieving the best possible image clarity.

What Makes a Good Microscope Camera?

Microscope cameras serve as a crucial tool in transforming microscopic observations into shareable data. When selecting a microscope camera, consider key criteria like resolution, which determines image clarity, and frame rate, affecting the smoothness of video capture. Connectivity options such as USB offer straightforward computer access, while HDMI supports high-definition display. Sensor size is also vital, impacting the field of view and light sensitivity. Additionally, camera adapters are essential for ensuring compatibility with various microscope models, making these cameras versatile tools for documentation and educational purposes.

Which Microscope to Buy?

Selecting the right microscope is crucial for a rewarding experience. Here are some tips on what to consider for your choice:

Microscopes For Students: Students and beginners should prioritize microscopes that are straightforward and economical. Ideal student microscopes provide clear imaging and are built to withstand frequent use, making them perfect for educational environments. These microscopes usually offer essential features for a foundational understanding of microscopy, focusing on clarity and ease of operation rather than advanced functionalities.

Microscopes For Advanced Users: Advanced enthusiasts and amateur scientists might seek microscopes that strike a balance between enhanced optical quality and user-friendly features. Look for options that offer improved resolution and image clarity, along with capabilities like camera integration for documenting and sharing discoveries. Stereo microscopes are great for those interested in observing 3D specimens in detail, thanks to their depth perception and broader field of view.

Microscopes For Professional Users/Laboratories: For those in professional and laboratory settings, the choice of microscope must align with the need for detailed analysis and high-end functionality. Additionally, the requirement to work with different contrast methods, such as Phase Contrast or Differential Interference Contrast (DIC) might be a factor. The optical design also plays a role when choosing laboratory microscopes. Special inverted microscopes, for example, are invaluable for applications involving cell cultures or bottom-view sample analysis, providing ease of access and excellent imaging from below. BRESSER UK offers several high-quality options for professionals who require reliable, precise instruments for their complex microscopic tasks.
