GENERAL HISTOLOGY

Detailed explanation-1: -The condenser is placed below the stage and concentrates the light, providing bright, uniform illumination in the region of the object under observation. Typically, the condenser focuses the image of the light source directly onto the plane of the specimen, a technique called critical illumination.

Detailed explanation-2: -The eyepiece, or ocular lens, is the part of the microscope that magnifies the image produced by the microscope’s objective so that it can be seen by the human eye. In this resource we will look at the different types of eyepieces, their components, how they work, and how to use them.

Detailed explanation-3: -The Illuminator. There is an illuminator built into the base of most microscopes. The purpose of the illuminator is to provide even, high intensity light at the place of the field aperture, so that light can travel through the condensor to the specimen.

Detailed explanation-4: -Mirror illuminators most often have flat and concave sides. The flat side simply reflects light and gives a sharper image. The concave side concentrates the light and provides brighter illumination.
