    The document describes different types of microscopes, including the compound microscope, optical microscope, digital microscope, fluorescence microscope, electron microscope, and stereo microscope. The compound microscope uses multiple lenses to magnify objects. The optical microscope is a type of compound microscope that magnifies images using lenses. The digital microscope connects to a monitor using a digital camera. The fluorescence microscope uses fluorescence and phosphorescence to view sample properties. The electron microscope has the highest magnification and uses electrons rather than light. The stereo microscope uses two objectives and eyepieces to provide 3D stereo vision.

    DIFFERENT KINDS OF MICROSCOPES

    1. Compound Microscope
    Consists of a number of lenses forming
    the image by the lens or a combination
    of lenses near the object, projecting it
    to the ocular lens or eyepiece
    Most used type of microscope

    2. Optical
    Microscope/Light Microscope
    A type of compound microscope that
    uses a combination of lenses
    magnifying the images of small
    objects

    3. Digital Microscope
    Has a digital CCD camera and is connected to a LCD
    or computer monitor
    Usually has no eyepieces to view the objects directly

    4. Fluorescence Microscope/Epifluorescent
    Microscope
    Uses fluorescence and phosphorescence to
    view the samples and their properties
    5. Electron Microscope

    One of the most advanced and important type of


    microscope
    Has the highest magnifying capacity
    Electrons are used to illuminate the tiniest
    particles
    More powerful compared to commonly used light
    microscope

    6. Stereo Microscope/Dissecting Microscope


    Uses two objectives and two
    eyepieces, making it possible to view
    a specimen under angles to the
    human eyes forming a stereo 3D optical vision
