C. Lesson Proper A Microscope is a tool that can help you see tiny objects and single-
celled organisms. It makes them look bigger. Its ability to make the
specimen bigger is called magnifying power or magnification. The
microscope also has the capacity to distinguish small gaps between two
separate points which humans cannot distinguish. It is called its resolving

power or resolution.
The compound light microscope
The compound light microscope comes with two sets of lenses which
causes it to achieve a higher level of magnification. It uses diffused light
from the sun or artificial light to illuminate the object to be observed
through the glass lenses. As light passes through the lenses, it is bent so
the specimen appears bigger when it is projected to the eye. The form and
structure of the specimen can then be seen because some of their parts
reflect light. It is important to remember never to use direct sunlight as a
light source to view objects since direct sunlight can permanently damage
the retina of the eye.
The parts of the compound microscope and its corresponding functions

are as follows.
1. Eyepiece or ocular- the lens at the top of the microscope that you look
through. On its rim, there are certain markings such as 5x, 10x, 15x,
which indicates the magnification power.
2. Body tube- is a hollow tubular structure that connects the eyepiece to
the objective lenses. It can be shifted down and up using the adjustment
knobs.
3. Arm- the part that supports the body tube and connects it to the base of
the microscope.
4. Base- the bottom of the microscope used for support. It also houses the
illuminator or mirror.
5. Stage- the flat platform where slides are placed.
6. Stage clips- hold the slides in place.
7. Mirror- it is used to reflect light from an external light source up to the
diaphragm, object to be observed, and lenses. Positioning the microscope
towards diffused light from the windows and ceiling one can see through
the eyepiece a bright circle of light called the field of view.
8. Revolving nosepiece- carries the objective lenses and can be rotated to
easily change power (magnification).
9. Fine adjustment knob- the small knob used for focusing finer details
of the specimen being viewed.
10.Coarse adjustment knob- the large knob located on the arm of the
microscope used for moving the body tube down and up for bringing the
object to be examined under exact focus.

11.Objective- a component that magnifies the images of the specimen to

form an enlarged image. There are three (3) objective lenses, namely, a.
Oil immersion objective (OIO)-used to view bacteria, very small protists,
and fungi. It is marked 97x or 100x or the word “oil”. b. High power
objective (HPO)- is marked 40x, 43x, or 60x. c. Low power objective
(LPO)- is marked 10x or 12x.
12.Inclination joint- a joint where the arm is fastened to the base. It is
used to tilt the microscope for more comfortable viewing.
13.Diaphragm- is fastened below the stage. It regulates the amount of
light passing through the specimen.
Proper care should be given to each part and the microscope. Remember
to always carry the microscope with both hands, one is holding the arm
and the other is holding the base. Place it 17 centimeters away from the
edge of the table with the arm facing you. Always hold it in an upright
position. Before using the microscope, wipe the metal parts with tissue
paper or a piece of cloth and wipe the lenses of the eyepiece and
objectives with a lens paper.
