This overview explores the various types of microscopes, highlighting their distinct features and functions. Light microscopes utilize visible light to magnify specimens, while stereo and compound microscopes vary in lens configuration and magnification power. Electron microscopes offer superior resolution, with transmission and scanning types designed for internal and surface imaging, respectively. Additional innovations like dark-field, phase contrast, and fluorescence microscopes enhance visibility and detail in samples. Each type serves unique purposes in science and research.

Transcription de la présentation

  1. MICROSCOPES Microscopic Instruments differ in their lenses and the source of their illumination

  2. Microscopes • All microscopes operate on the same basic principles • Energy is projected toward an object (MO) • Energy bounces off of the object and creates an impression on a sensing device • The device can be a TV screen, a piece of film or the human eye • The image reveals the form, shape, size and structural features of the object

  3. I. LIGHT MICROSCOPE Visible light illuminates the object

  4. A. STEREO MICROSCOPE (SM) • Light bulb for a light source • Magnification of 35X • Surface picture (3D) Spore under a Stereo Microscope

  5. B. COMPOUND MICROSCOPE (CM) • Most commonly used – 2 lenses • Ocular lens – 10X • Objective lenses • 10X, 40X, 100X • Some can even go to 2000X

  6. B. COMPOUND MICROSCOPE (CM) • Light bulb for light source • Light goes through object • Small or thin slice object • Size and shape of bacteria cell can be seen

  7. II. ELECTRON MICROSCOPE Thousand times better than a light microscope.

  8. II. ELECTRON MICROSCOPE • German physicist Ernst Ruska • Showed that electrons can flow in a sealed tube if a vacuum is maintained • Magnets can be used to pinpoint the flow of electrons onto an object

  9. II. ELECTRON MICROSCOPE • Depending upon the density of structures in the object, the electrons are either absorbed or deflected • The electrons form an image that can be projected onto a screen and outlines the structures in the object

  10. A. TRANSMISSION ELECTRON MICROSCOPE (TEM) 1931 • Used to see internal cell structures in detail • Ultrathin sections of a specimen must be prepared because the electron beam can only penetrate matter a short distance • Sections are floated in water and picked up on a wire grid • Sections are inserted into the vacuum chamber of the microscope • Electrons illuminate the specimen

  11. A. TRANSMISSION ELECTRON MICROSCOPE (TEM) 1931 • Magnetic field focuses the beam of electrons (as condenser lens of light • No ocular lens, electrons hit electron sensitive screen to create image • 200,000X – Strongest Microscope Transmission electron micrograph of E. coli

  12. B. SCANNING ELECTRON MICROSCOPE (SEM) 1960’s • Permits the surface of objects to be seen without having to make thin sections • Specimens are placed in the vacuum chamber and coated with a thin layer of gold to increase conductivity • The electron beam sweeps across the object and knocks loose showers of electrons

  13. B. SCANNING ELECTRON MICROSCOPE (SEM) 1960’s • A 3D image builds line by line like a TV receiver – can see surface detail • Can magnify 50X – 100,000X • See image on TV screen SEM 3D Photo of E. Coli

  14. B. SCANNING ELECTRON MICROSCOPE (SEM) 1960’s

  15. E. Coli - SEM E. Coli - TEM

  16. III. VARIATIONS Manipulation of Light

  17. A. DARK-FIELD MICROSCOPE • Highlights specimen against a black background – only object is illuminated • Light scattered and hits object from different angles • Like us seeing the moon at night because sunlight from behind the earth reflects off the moon

  18. A. DARK-FIELD MICROSCOPE • Good for living MOs to see size, shape and motility • Helps in diagnosis of some diseases caused by spiral bacteria because they are so small • Treponemapalladumcauses syhphilis and is identified from scrapings of the infected lesions

  19. B. PHASE CONTRAST MICROSCOPE • Used in research labs for observing living MO and their movement in medium where they are growing – no staining • Same magnification as compound microscope but it detects small differences in density • Compound microscope that increases the contrast between denser MOs and surrounding medium (MO denser than medium)

  20. B. PHASE CONTRAST MICROSCOPE Epithelial Cells - Phase Contrast Microscope Epithelial Cells - Compound Microscope

  21. C. FLUORESCENCE MICROSCOPE • MO’s are coated with fluorescent dye and illuminated with UV light • Coated MO’s appear to fluoresce • Applications in medical microbiology tagged antibodies

  22. D. SCANNING TUNNELING MICROSCOPE (STM) 1981 • Focus on surface of object, produce a map showing bumps and valleys of atoms • Map surface as blind person with a cane (tap) • No special prep to sample Surface of Blue Nickel Surface of Blue Platinum Surface of Copper
