Stereoscopic Microscopy

• American Cockroach
  Among the roaches, the American cockroach is known as the biggest of the house-infesting roaches as observed through stereoscopic microscopy. They are usually found in places where food is prepared or stored. Although they thrive in damp sewers and basements, in heating ducts under hospitals, they can be transferred into homes and apartments in boxes... read more...

• The Stereoscopic Microscope
  The details that described the structures of many kinds of physical evidence do not always require microscopic examination under very high magnifications. For such specimens, the stereoscopic microscopy is the best tool to use, with the magnifying power that range from 10x to 125x. This stereoscopic microscope has the advantage of presenting a typical three-dimensional..read more...
