Micro slides-Synthesis Chemical Lab, 99%

A micro slide is a thin flat piece of glass, typically 75 by 26 mm (3 by 1 inches) and about 1 mm thick, used to hold objects for examination under a microscope. Typically the object is mounted (secured) on the slide, and then both are inserted together in the microscope for viewing. The purpose of a microscope slide is to act as the support for a sample or specimen which needs to be examined under a microscope. The most important aspects of any microscope slide are the clarity and quality of the glass and the nature of the light which can pass through it. The stage micrometer is placed directly on the stage of the micro and brought into focus. By rotating the eyepiece, both scales can be positioned parallel to each other. By comparing them, you'll know exactly how many of the graticule's divisions are equal to an equivalent number of divisions on the micrometer.-SYNTHESIS CHEMICAL LAB.
