| 559961 | 2007-06-18 08:24:00 | Thanks all. Very informative. I am making Methylene Blue stain to be able to see those little nasties. Anybody out there interested in microscopy ? | heaton (3697) | ||
| 559962 | 2007-06-18 09:35:00 | You doing this at home out of interest? What sort of microscope (magnification) do you have? | Jen (38) | ||
| 559963 | 2007-06-18 10:00:00 | You doing this at home out of interest? What sort of microscope (magnification) do you have? Just a hobby at home. I have an Olympus Laboratory quality microscope X10 X40 X60 X100 magnification. Also interested in photography. |

Without the oil, the refractive index will be incorrect. Don't the microscope science kits you can buy for kids educational toys contain a variety of stains ready to use? |
