The difference between biological microscope and metallographic microscope
The difference between biological microscope and metallographic microscope. 1. Objective: The high-power objective of a biological microscope is usually labeled as/0.17 (upright microscope) and/1.2 (inverted microscope) due to consideration of the thickness of the cover glass, slide glass, and culture vessel. For upright biological microscopes below 10x, the objective is marked as/-, which means it can be ignored to correct the influence of glass on light refraction. The objective lens of a metallographic microscope is usually marked with/0. 2. Purpose: A biological microscope is used for observing and studying biological sections, biological cells, live tissue culture, fluid precipitation, etc. It can also observe other transparent or semi transparent objects, powders, small particles, etc. Metallographic microscope is used for observing microorganisms, cells, tissue cultures, suspensions, precipitates, etc. It can continuously observe the process of cell proliferation and division in culture medium. 3. Features: The biological microscope adopts an infinite distance dual color correction and contrast enhancement optical system, providing users with clear images. Metallographic microscope is a high-tech product developed by combining knowledge and technology of optical telescopes, photoelectric conversion technology, and computer image processing technology. It mainly reflects and characterizes the phase and structure composition, grains, non-metallic inclusions, and the quantity, morphology, size, distribution, orientation, spatial arrangement of certain crystal defects in the constituent materials.
