Professor of Biology and Microbiology Robert Wise, works on the electron microscope in Halsey science center. Thursday, February 28, 2019.
The 96-wells plate was the first thing I built for this MOC. It set the scale for the whole project... I know, I said it is 1:1, but actually more like 9:10 - when measuring the microplate. The cross table came next. The size of the plate determined the required swing out, that, in turn, for the size of the stage, and so on. I was quite pleased to come up with a trick to put two wheels above each other, the x-axis and y-axis controls, so to speak.

Slide #14. 40x Magnification. Spleen. Dense connective tissue. (Connective tissue capsule with trabeculae).
This model microscope does not win many points on ergonomics; not with the focus knob at the back. The reason for placing it there, is that the mechanism that raises and lowers the objectives is rather chunky. By turning the focus knob, a linear actuator lifts or lowers the objective carousel. Of course, it is possible to raise them too high and crush the objective into the table. If you have never cracked a slide, you never have used a microscope! (After I wired the microscope up, though, the carousel gets stuck just below the maximum height...)
Biochemistry is defined as a science that combines the principals of chemistry, genetics, biology, mathematics and physics together in one. Students that graduate with a biochemistry degree from a leading learning institution will be able to obtain a career in a vast amount of fields.
playing with light. varied the light, with a cheap LED light toy, and made video of that. The different colors throw different features into relief. interesting.
