  2. What does the working distance on a Jenco™ microscope refer to?

    1 answer

    1. The working distance is measured from the end of the objective to the top of the specimen when the specimen is in focus.

  5. What is a Parfocal on a Jenco microscope?

    1 answer

    1. Parfocal means the center of your specimen will stay in focus as you change magnification.

  6. What objectives can you use immersion oil with on a Jenco™  microscope?

    1 answer

    1. Only those objectives designed for it with an oil specification clearly marked on it's barrel (100X OIL), otherwise the oil creeps up into the microscope causing problems.

      Helpful?

  7. What is a Stereo microscope?

    1 answer

    1. A microscope that uses two light paths to give a 3-D view of a large specimen.  Mainly used for macro sized or solid samples.  Limited magnification range, 10x to 200x.

      Helpful?

  8. What is resolution in microscopy?

    1 answer

    1. Bringing fine details into focus.

      Helpful?

  9. On a Jenco™  microscope, what does Kohler Illumination do?

    1 answer

    1. Kohler illumination produces an even field of illumination over the whole specimen.

      Helpful?

  10. Do Jenco™ inverted microscopes use oil objectives?

    1 answer

    1. No, because the objective is below the slide and the drop of oil could only sit on top of the slide.
