What you need to know

Caution!
When using your experiment set, wear an apron (or old clothing) and rubber gloves!
Always carry out your experiments under the guidance and with the help of an adult!
Your experiment set includes numerous accessories that help you carry out different experiments.
You can use all the parts independently of the microscope that you use for yourresearch.
Use the following web link to find interesting experiments you can try out.

You can do them with the individual parts of your experiment set.
Prepared Slides
The prepared slides contain a QR code. Let your parents show you how to read a QR code on your smartphone to learn more about the specimen.
You will need a transmitted light microscope to view the prepared slides (e.g. 8855000, 8855002).
Shrimp eggs
These are special eggs that are capable of survival even when they are dried out. As a result, they are particularly ideal for raising brine shrimp. You can find out how in the appendix to these instructions.
Sea salt
You can observe the sea salt using your microscope. Salt is a crystal that looks very interesting through a microscope.
Apart from that, you will also need the sea salt to make a salt solution, in which you will hatch your brine shrimp.
Yeast
The yeast in your experiment set is included as feed for the brine shrimp. If you feed them regularly, you will be able to watch how they grow.
Prepared slides “Textile“ (material/fabric), “Dry Shrimp” and “Butterfly Wings” Different prepared slides that you can investigate using your microscope.
Empty vials
You can keep a few samples in the empty vials (e.g. leaves, and, etc.)
Slide covers
You use the slide covers to cover specimens that you have placed on a slide in order to observe with a microscope.
Adhesive labels
You can use these labels to identify your permanent prepared specimens.
You can also use them to label the empty vials.
Slides
You place the specimen on a slide. After you have covered it with some water or gum media, you can place a cover slip on top. Then you place the slide under the clips on the microscope.
Scalpel
The scalpel is a sharp knife that you can use to slice specimens/samples.
Tweezers
These are a type of pincers that you can use to pick up smaller objects.
Dissecting needle
A dissecting needle can be used for many things. You can use it to scratch the surface of a specimen, to fix objects in place or to stir liquids.
Pipette
You can use this instrument to soak up liquids in small amounts and squirt them out again.
To soak up liquids, push the upper part (head) of the pipette together and put the opening on the lower part in the liquid. Let the head go and the pipette will fill with the liquid.
When you want to release some of the liquid, simply push the head together again. The more carefully you press, the less liquid will come out of the opening.
Magnifying glass
With the magnifying glass, you can observe objects with 2 times the magnification.
Stones
12 stones and QR Code. Let your parents show you how to read a QR code with your smartphone to learn more about the stones.
To view the stones you need a reflected light microscope.

How do I make my own specimens?
Take the object that you want to observe and place it on a glass slide (17). Then, add a few drops of distilled water on the object using a pipette. Now, place a cover slip vertically at the edge of the drop of water, so that the water runs along the edge of the cover slip. Then, slowly lower the cover slip over the water drops.

After use
To make your experiment set – and the enjoyment of it – last longer, you should make note of the following for after each use.

Clean the slide covers , slides and the microscope instruments carefully with water and some soap.
Caution!
Slide covers, slides and the instruments have sharp edges and are in some cases pointed. Make sure to always let adults help you when cleaning, so that you don’t hurt yourself!
Warning! The slide covers are particularly thin and could break. It is best to place them on a piece of paper on a hard surface for cleaning.
Close all the vials tightly after use. Some containers have liquids that evaporate very easily, and could dry up.
