Microscopy Topics / Categories


Agricultural Microbiology (12)
Microscopy is the study of devices (microscopes) that are used to view objects or certain
Bacteriology (123)
areas that cannot be seen with a naked eye.
Basic Microbiology (60)
Microscopes work on the physical principle of magnification where the image of an
Biochemical Test (114)
object is magnified so that it can be visible.
The substances that can only be seen with a microscope are called microscopic Biochemistry (155)

substances. Bioinformatics (21)

Microscopes are imperative in areas like microbiology that deals with the structure and Biology (183)
function of microscopic living beings. Biotechnology (28)
Microscopy is further divided into three branches; optical microscopy, electron Book Reviews (1)
microscopy, and X-ray microscopy. Cell Biology (94)
X-ray microscopy is a fairly new technology that is responsible for detailed imaging of
Culture Media (66)
subcellular organelles like the nucleus and chromosomes.
Difference Between (89)
Microscopy, importantly optical microscopy, began with the discovery of the first
Diseases (29)
microscope by Anton Von Leeuwenhoek.
Environmental Microbiology (6)
The complexity of microscopy since then has increased rapidly with new and advanced
microscopes with higher magnification and resolution. Epidemiology (23)

In an optical microscope, the rays of light are passed through a series of glass lenses to Food Microbiology (49)

produce a magnified image on the observer’s eyes. Compound microscopes are the most Genetics (78)

common type of microscope, mostly used for research and teaching purposes. Human Anatomy and Physiology (70)
In the case of an electron and X-ray microscope, an electron beam is created which Immunology (115)
produced a digital magnified image of an object. Instrumentation (63)
Electron microscopes have very high magnification and resolution which produces clear
Journals (1)
enlarged images of objects as small as an atom.
Microscopy (28)
Depending on the nature of the sample, different types of microscopes, including bright
Molecular Biology (66)
field microscope, fluorescence microscope, phase contrast, and darkfield microscopes,
Mycology (33)
are also available.
Parasitology (25)
The magnification of these microscopes depends on the type of lens used in the system
which produces images of different magnitude and resolution so that they can be viewed. Pharmacology (14)

Microscopy is important in different areas of science like histology, cytology, and Phycology (2)

bacteriology. Microscopic examination of the morphology and structure of cells has been Protocols (9)
used as an essential technique for the identification of microorganisms. Research Methodology (19)

Staining (29)
