  1. Microscopes

  2. Development of the microscope • Anton van Leeuwenhoek • Father of Microbiology • Made his own lenses (some as powerful as the microscopes we use in class) • First person to see living microorganisms

  3. Microscopes

  4. Compound light microscope • Focuses light • Shines light through objects • Magnifies up to 1000 times (ours are 400x) • Can view live organisms • Uses combination of lenses www.science.smith.edu/.../Labmanual/01CELLS.htm

  6. Dissecting microscope • Focuses light • See surface of objects • Magnifies up to 40 times • Can view live organisms • Uses combination of lenses wappingersschools.org/.../visualvocab/page4.html

  8. Electron microscope Two types: • Transmission electron microscope (TEM) • Scanning electron microscope (SEM)

  9. Transmission electron microscope • Focuses electrons • Sees through objects • Magnifies up to 100,000 times • Can view only dead or inanimate objects www.phy.cuhk.edu.hk/.../CM120/CM120.html

  10. Transmission electron microscope Mammalian mitochondrion biology.unm.edu/.../Summaries/Cell.html

  11. Scanning electron microscope • Uses electrons • View surface of objects • Magnifies up to 10,000 times • Views only dead or inanimate objects http://gsc.nrcan.gc.ca/ebeam/sem_e.php

  12. Scanning electron microscope Bee eye www.rdg.ac.uk/cfam/facilities/sem.htm

  13. Viruses budding from a cell Transmission electron microscope Scanning electron miscroscope www. aecom.yu.edu/aif/gallery/sem/sem.htm

  14. JEOL microscope • Uses finely-focused electrons • surface • Magnifies up to at least 2,000,000 times • Cannot view live organisms
