    Imaging Biological Samples with Optical Microscopy

    8.7K
    Optical microscopy uses optic principles to provide detailed images of samples. Antonie van Leeuwenhoek designed the first compound optical microscope in the 17th century to visualize blood cells, bacteria, and yeast cells. In 1830, Joseph Jackson Lister created an essentially modern light microscope. The 20th century saw the development of microscopes with enhanced magnification and resolution.
    In optical microscopy, the specimen to be viewed is placed on a glass slide and clipped on the stage...
