A week ago I got recommended the guy that repaired an SEM from like 1970 the size of a small room and I think 100k max zoom and now I get this guy just casually having one the size of a mini fridge do 250kx. And now I want one.
@@kayakMike1000 Well, moreso Money. These units are many tens of thousands of dollars on the low end. If these cost $5k I would buy one, along with droves of others.
My dream consumer definitions have been updated. Electron microscopes have always fascinated me, they have so many uses and open up a world of discoveries. I am happy to know that, increasingly, they have become compact and accessible to the general public and not only for labs. Greetings from Brazil 🇧🇷
I was in Winterthur, Switzerland, three weeks ago and visited the Technorama. On the 2nd or 3rd floor, I explored the biology "i think" department, which was truly fascinating. However, I was specifically there to see the electron microscope (SEM). I asked two young gentlemen if it was possible to turn it on, and they kindly did. The specimens we examined included a fly and a leaf, and we discussed how they gold-coat objects to make them easier to scan. The gold layer enhances visibility, which was really interesting to learn. It was a great experience overall.
I often asked to turn the SEM on in different labs, but they never let me. I had to buy my own, because it's very interesting. Yes, I will show in the next videos on the whole process in more detail, I'm working on the filming.
@@MicroscopySpecialist I asked how much an SEM cost , one similar to what Technorama has, it was anything between $250k to $500k , so a bit out of my range :p but yeah good luck if you can afford one, looking forward to see it
Probably costs about $1 per x of magnification. I have microscope envy. Velcro, wolfram filament from a lightbulb, beard hair, maybe a seed?, string and needle.
No to brag... but.... I also got a microscope in 2024. It's a brand new SWIFT-380B with darkfield and rheinberg filters, mechanical stage and condenser. The image quality for live specimens is very good. Best purchase EVER! The "SNE Alpha" is about the price of a nice car... But we can safely say that a SWIFT-380B cost just a little more than two full tank of premium gas and maybe a car wash.
possible answer... 1. the tissue of a hook and loop fastener 2. there is a conductive wire inside every hair dryer, the job of the wire is to heat the air flowing out of the device. that wire is the same used in the video i think. 3. at first it looked like a broken pencil, but now that i am thinking about it, it is an electron microscope, so probably it is a cut electric wire "insulator + conductive wire inside" 4. ???? 5. a thread through a needle.
@@ABOUDIBRAHIM-h4j you're the best) But correct are: 2 - electric bulb filament. It's thinner than the hair (around 0.02 mm) 3 - shaved hair on the razor blade 4 - black pepper
Finish can be the end of a race track. Polish can be just a shoe wax. Pollen can be a flower's semen. Don't look for hidden meaning where it is absent.

3:52 THAT'S IMPRESSIVE!!! It would be nice to compare side by side with optical microscope. Common sample use for optical microscope (insect parts, salmonella bacteria from raw chicken, diatom, food sample, citric acid crystallisation with alcohol and polarization filter, nematode from garden, water flea from local pond water/sediments, etc).
wow. would you mind sharing some details on your equipment? as i know em's use some significant amount of energy. usually between 1k - 10k watts. how high is the energy consumption in avarage and do u have a lab with commercial energy contract with your energy distributer or you are at home? can u share some tech specs bout that little beauty? that would be really nice. awesome content mate🤜🏻🤛🏽 und danke für deine mühen👍🏽

Unfortunately it's a little bit tricky to observe living cells with the SEM because of a vacuum and fixation. I'll try to make something interesting soon, stay tuned and thanks for your kind comment!
@@glichasasha750 I'm preparing a video about scanning process. And it will be available soon. The main idea - SE detector in every point of the sample calculate electrons and marks this pixel 0...255 (black to white). The mic is scanning extremely fast, thats why you can see 10..15fps image on live view
Interesting thing about floor top microscopes - their columns are also small. Basically, it all depends on the chamber. Here it is tiny, and accordingly the microscope itself is compact. But in floor stand microscope you can put a soccer ball inside.
I'll explain it in the future episode about SEM (coming soon). The main Idea - in this particular microscope I can't control Dwell time and Line/Frame average. That's why I need higher kV to obtain a nice signal/noise. It's kinda possible to change DT but only in service engineer menu, so at this moment I simply coat the pollen with metal and use 20kV.
1 - velcro or gecko tape? 2 - absolutely true, tungsten bulb double-spiral filament 3 - cutted hair 5 - it looks like the eye of a needle but the thread is very thin with separate fibres, looks more like a cobweb.
1. Sticky fabric... Not sure about it's proper name in English, a fabric with plastic hooks to stick to another piece of fluffy fabric. 2. A heating spiral from incandescence lamp 3. Hair, likely a human hair. Is that center piece looks mushy because it's freshly cut? Upd.: I even think it's a facial hair. It's not very round like head hair, but not flattened as pubic or body hair. 4. That's difficult one... I guess, some poppy seed? Though, no, they have a different structure... It should be some seed. Dried plant matter. It looks kinda like a pepper, though it would be a tiny pepper if a thread on the left bottom corner is a regular one. Though, no, it's probably a pepper. 5. A needle with a thread.
You can only see dead microbes (or in dormance, like tardigrade or cyst). If you wanna see microbe moving, you should save few thousand and get a compound microscope (starting at 100$).

wish i had one of those. it's fascinating how insignificant humans really are, there are MUCH larger things and MUCH smaller things, but 99% of people never understand anything beyond what their primitive eyes can see, which is why 99% of people are so dumb. i'd mostly use that microscope to see if my visualization in my head matches the reality, in most cases it does. i'd like to observe lot of different materials and how they work. looking at tip of a needle would be quite cool or thing piece of thread or thin fishing line, those things would look amazing under that.
1. Price inquiry - please contact me via email (you can find it in "About"). 2. Yes, I had experience. Coxem EM30, Phenom. Each microscope has its pros and cons. SEC has advantages that i really like - changing the sample = Vent+Vac around one minute. It's extremely fast. 5 axis stage is also a good option and very useful. I'll prepare a video about resolution and adjustments. Phenom FEG has a higher resolution with higher price. So the choice is a difficult question. You should worry about warranty, service, price, payment method and other things. So for a benchtop SEM, SEC is my choice!
