how to prepare microscope slides of spores for viewing and for long term storage?
    #27092855 - 12/16/20 07:36 PM (3 years, 1 month ago)

I have a lot of spore syringes and prints. I am getting a microscope and already have slides. How can i prepare the slides to start a long term viable collection of slides?

It's best to just keep the prints around, and make new slides when you want to view them.  There are mounting mediums for making permanent slides, but sometimes they don't age well.

For viewing spores it helps to use a very tiny drop of water, and then press down firmly on the coverslip to force all the spores into the same focal plane.

It also helps to paint a ring of nail polish around the edges of the coverslip to stop currents from flowing and making the spores fly by as you are trying to look at them.
