Microscope stages

Microscope stages

A microscope stage is the flat, black table where the prepared slide is held in place by the stage clips and an adjustable stage stop protects slides and microscope. The working distance is the area between the top of the specimen and the bottom of the objective lens when the sample is in focus.

A mechanical stage may be fitted or supplied with a microscope and retains the prepared slide. Mechanical movement allows the slide to be manipulated in X and Y directions. The slip clutch prevents the gears being damaged if you try to rack further than the normal stop position.

Stage accessories for microscopes include glass or metal inserts, auxillary stages, attachable mechanical stage, hemacytometer holder, petri dish holder and well plate holders.
