    Most of our videos have a table of contents (as well as additional info!) if you expand the video details. But we thought we'd put the table of contents here as well to make it easier to navigate. As always, if we find any typos or clarification concerns---we add it to this pinned comment. :)
    Table of Contents:
    0:55 Magnification and Resolution
    1:49 Light Microscopes
    2:50 Electron Microscopes
    3:34 Parts of a Light Microscope
    5:51 Using the Light Microscope (how to focus and calculating total magnification)
    7:28 Additional Microscope Tips
    8:02 Clean-Up Check

    I’m a first year med bio student in a public university, and we can only borrow a maximum of 3 microscopes per class, 2 compound microscopes, and 1 light microscope, so we would always try to get to the light microscope first because it’s easier to use and shows the specimens better. Hope we have more light microscopes😂😅

I think he should've put a different video, but this is also very helpful 'cause it answered a handful of the questions :) anyway, happy day to you all.

    I have a light microscope, and the maximimum magnification for the lenses is 25, and the maximum magnification for the other lense is 100. if 25x100=2500, does this mean my light microscope can see 2500 times? Just asking here, I am still new to using mine

    • @siriushades4269
      @siriushades4269 2 роки тому

      This is a really good question! With your microscope, the maximum magnification would be the magnification from your highest-power objective lens (in this case, the 100x) multiplied by the magnification of your eyepiece, which, for this argument's sake, I'll assume is 10x. Hence, if we want to calculate the maximum magnification of your light microscope, it would be 10 x 100 = 1000x. So, to answer your question, no, your light microscope can only see up to 1000 times, because the magnification of one objective lens has little to no effect on the magnification of the other(s). Hope this helps!
