A microscan technologies, which is used by scientist to magnify very small objects to make them visible. The commonest type is the optical microscope. An optical microscope consists of a lens tube, a slide platform, an object condenser and a metal frame. The lens tube contains a number of lenses, the most important of which are ocular and objective lenses. The lenses are for magnifying the object. The slide platform contains a number of clamps for holding the slides. The object condenser is composed of a lens and a diaphragm. The latter is used to control the amount of light entering the lens tube. The frame is made up of two part: a heavy bash and a swivelling top. The optical microscope is good enough for ordinary laboratory work but for research the much more powerful electrons microscope is used.
