I loved your explanation on 3:00 when you explain about those insects in a funny manner. Well Oliver, what is your most loving part in microscopy: 1.Collecting sample 2.Preparing slides 3.Observing 4.Shooting with camera 5.Editing the video for our likes! My most exiting part is collection of samples(especially pond water) and observing, while slide preparation is a boring job and sometimes get's messy. Also we have to clean all slides after observation. well tell me of yours. Lord bless you!
Great video! Thanks to your channel I've actually gotten really interested in microbiology and you were the one who introduced me to many parts of microscopy! Glad to see you post
@@rustysmith3565 But for me, Oliver has helped me in supporting to join microscopy during January 2018 on teaching various slide preparations techniques, how to find local specimens, etc. Because of him I was able to buy a microscope on 4th-May-2019 when he just uploaded his "cotton candy under microscope video". I really thank him.
@@atharva-upclosingnature2423 :: Yeah he's a helpful guy and his personalty shows in his mannerisms. I shove anything i can think of under my scope, even gunge from cleaning the kitchen sink overflow or any fungus or soil particles, just anything. Now if you want to scare yourself put little insects under your scope, some are really weird and if they were the size of dogs we'd be reluctant to go outside.
Hi MIcroBH. Many congratulations for all your marvelous work in Amateur Micros. I think that those "insects" are Collembola, also know as springtails (they jump when in danger). However they (many species on a handful of soil) have 3 pairs of legs, they are (know) not considered insects, they are classifed as hexapods. They are very abundant on soils.
Well in India i received your notification at maybe 4:00 am. I felt sleepy so I dint wanted to watch but I was really excited about your new video so I finally watched them. I am speechless as always. O MY GOSH! So nice. Keep it up. You are probably the "FATHER OF AMATEUR MICROSCOPY"
Hi. I’m a new subscriber and I really like the channel a lot so far. Question: are all the images/videos taken for a compound microscope or some are from stereo?
I included both. The images where you see the insects like through a magnifying glass were taken with a stereo microscope. The ones of the worms were taken with a compound.
Makes me sad, I live in a desert and there is not much moss here, the little bit of moss there is is completely sterile. I have looked at multiple samples and not even found any bacteria.
If you want to do cell biology for research, then you have to study Biology/Microbiology and then specialize in Cell Biology. If you want to do microscopy of cells with in a more medical direction, then you study Histology (the study of tissues).
Sidenote, those "insects" aren't actually insects. They're in the same phylum as the insect class, but these belong to the class entognatha... pretty sure they're from the collembola ordo, but that's as far as I can narrow it down, I'm not an expert tho
The problem with that is, becasue there is also a photo adapter in between that changes the magnification. And sometimes I crop the image and then this again changes the magnification. Adding the objective magnification therefore would sometimes be misleading. But I am doing all my work with the following objectives: 4x, 10x, 20x, 40x, 60x.
That dislike on the vid might probably be one of those tardigrades he didn't find in the moss.
That pollen change was amazing. I really appreciate your videos.
Truly educational youtube channel. Your videos should be shown in school.

: Watching Microbe Hunter's videos was what got me started, it's amazing looking into a world we never normally see.

5:11 Brother, I think you're right, looks like beavers!
definitely the work of a beaver
@@theunseen010 It is work of beaver. I can even recognize that.

As a scientist I appreciate lots your videos. Excellent work, thanks!

love this ‘how-to’ research series! hope to see much more!! 🧪🔬
Just got a sw200dl swift microscope. I can't wait to begin exploring with it. You provide so much useful information.
What do you think about axiostar plus as first microscope?
Thank you for the good content
Zeiss is good but expensive. If it is bought used and if it works well (and has the optics and features that you want), then it is fine.
Thank you very much for the interesting video. God bless you for bringing happiness to so many people.
The "nail" is referred to as a "railroad spike", at least in the USA.
train companies use herbicides like Glyphosateetc on there tracks....the old nail is very intersting

Sir can tell wt we have to do to be a cell biologist

Cool! Thank you.
i tried to put an algae sample under my microscope today but sadly i couldn’t find anything :-( any tips on how to find microbes??
You are a true hunter
Finally, thank you

Why you never tell the object lens and the occulair lens??????????

Adding the objective magnification therefore would sometimes be misleading. But I am doing all my work with the following objectives: 4x, 10x, 20x, 40x, 60x.
And what eyepiece do you use?
Please look at unstained live blood.
Hello Microbehunter.
Those 'insects' are actually poduromorph springtails
That would be microscopic beavers eating the wood
Microbiology 🔥🔥🔥🔥
oh my god, the green screen !!!!
Have you ever collected from a fish tank?
none of your video have magnification details and type of light used. such details should be available in text on video
Fascinating.
