Question
Answer
show 10^-6 m  
🗑
prefix micro   show
🗑
nanometer (nm)   show
🗑
Quorum   show
🗑
show illuminator, condenser  
🗑
show objective lenses  
🗑
eyepiece   show
🗑
show Objective lense magnification (power) times the ocular lense magnification (power).  
🗑
Resolution   show
🗑
show shorter  
🗑
The white light in compound light microscope has __ wavelength.   show
🗑
show 2000x  
🗑
Refractive index   show
🗑
show By staining them - they will then have different refractive indexes.  
🗑
show refractive index - keeps light rays from refracting as they enter air - increases resolving power of lenses.  
🗑
Brightfield illumination   show
🗑
show Used for invisible microorganisms & cannot be stained - uses darfkield condenser with opaque disk - sees only reflected light - black background.  
🗑
show Good to examine interior cell structures - Used with living microorganisms - don't have to fix them - uses special condenser to absorb refracted light & interference patterns.  
🗑
Differential interference contrast (DIC) microscopy   show
🗑
Fluorescense   show
🗑
Fluorescence microscopy   show
🗑
Principal use of fluorescence microscopy   show
🗑
show 3D image made by light microscope - uses fluorescent stains & laser - computer constructs image from stack of images - ATP & Ca ion concentrations.  
🗑
Scanning Acoustic Microscopy (SAM)   show
🗑
show Use of pinhole aperture  
🗑
show Study living cells attached to another surface - cancer, plaque, etc.  
🗑
show in black & white  
🗑
show Transmission - thin sections of a specimen & scanned - 3d view of surface.  
🗑
Positive staining   show
🗑
show Increase electron opacity of surrounding field & useful when studying very small particles/specimins like virus particles, bacterial flagella, proteins.  
🗑
show Heavy metals adhere at 45 degree angle on one side & leaves a shadow to crate 3d for size.  
🗑
TEM has __ resolutions & valuable for examining __ of specimen.   show
🗑
Drawback of TEM?   show
🗑
show 3d view of surface - good for intact cells & viruses - uses electrons  
🗑
show Doesn't modify specimen or damage it - map atomic & molecular shapes, characterize magnetic & chemical properties, & temp variation inside cells.  
🗑
show Thin metal (tungsten) probe scans specimen & produces an image revealing bumps & depressions of the atoms on surface of specimen.  
🗑
show Metal & diamond probe - 3d image - doesn't damage specimen - both biological substances & molecular processes.  
🗑
Stains are __ composed of positive & negative ion.   show
🗑
The color of __ dyes is in the positive ion.   show
🗑
show acidic  
🗑
Name some basic dyes   show
🗑
Most commonly used dyes   show
🗑
__ dyes are not attracted to most types of bacteria.   show
🗑
show To prepare colorless bacteria against colored background - eosin, acid fuchsin, & nigrosin  
🗑
Simple stain   show
🗑
show Chemical that increases affinity of stain for biospecimen or coats it.  
🗑
Differential stains   show
🗑
show Stain that classifies bacteria into gram-positive & gram negative.  
🗑
4 steps of gram staining   show
🗑
Primary stain   show
🗑
Decolorizing agent   show
🗑
Gram-positive   show
🗑
Gram-negative   show
🗑
Counterstains   show
🗑
What reacts to create gram stain?   show
🗑
show positive  
🗑
Acid-fast stain   show
🗑

🗑
show Used to color & isolate special parts of microorganisms & to find capsules.  
🗑
Capsule   show
🗑
