Preparing microscopes
- Use tweezers to place a thin specimen on top of the water drop.
- Add a drop of stain. Stains are used to highlight organelles in the cell.
- Add a small drop of water to a slide with a pipette.
- Finally, add the cover slip to squash the specimen. Make sure not to get any air bubbles stuck under their.
Artefacts: Air bubbles, dust, fingerprints. They are especially common in electron microscopes because they take the most preparation to set up meaning there is more of a change for artefacts to be formed.
