I really like this style! It’s like going on a microbe safari!! Also really enjoy the biology talk. It’s actually really relaxing and enjoyable to watch. 🙂
Yup he’s just being himself I think
Agree
yeah
I don’t know if you need to do a livestream or not, I can take them or leave them but I do like this form of video. Free form, unscripted, feels like we are sitting there with you as you explore. This was fun.
Thank you for identifying the microscopic organisms found in water. I bought a used but nice compound microscope for $30 at a garage sale. I'm getting more enjoyment from microscopy since I follow you now on RUclips. My grandkids will be amazed after we take water samples from the local water sources and now we can identify what we see because you named the microbes. Thank you for your many helpful videos. It makes it easy to understand how to get the most from microscopy.
Great Idea Oliver, I have to tell you, that when I was thinking about buying a microscope, your channel and video`s really helped me, and I thank you so much for that, I even managed to put some microscopy video`s on my RUclips channel, of water samples taken from my pond so thank you for helping me with this wonderful hobby.
That was excellent, Oliver. Even if you decide against 'going live', please produce more of this kind of 'semi-live' output. It's very involving and most enjoyable. Cheers 👍🏼
I love this style of video, watching you do microscopy in real time, whilst sharing your great knowledge is awesome.
I’m really new to microscopy and enjoy your channel immensely. This video was very useful as an unedited source of your processes prior to the usual edited uploads. My equipment is fairly basic but it was great to see that it takes time to find interesting things even with more expensive kit. Keep up the great work!
Great to see another video uploaded 😊
It is incredible the vortex that a tiny rotifer is able to create. Thank you for all you do.
I like this style as well. It was very informative, not only the biology talk, but also the way you made the slides and operated the microscope. It looked very much like when I look through my own microscope: the detritus, the rotifers, the difficulty of keeping these critters in focus or even in sight, etc. And messing up a slide or two! Of course your microscope and camera are way better than mine so it looks much better, but it gives me confidence.
I had never heard about the "vitalism" versus "mechanism" debate, and it is these kinds of tidbits that can make a video really interesting. Whether it is a big question like "what is life?" or "the difference between one rotifer and the other", it doesn't matter. I like it when I learn something new and it doesn't have to be a life changing idea.
I think I will go out to the pond in the park tomorrow to get me fresh samples!
Cool..!
I will specifically take out time to see this beautiful video... As always liked before watching...!❤❤
One of the first person to watch the longest water microscopy video😎
Fantastic video
Very education as well thanks for the history provided and biology :)
I would love another one of these
I'd like to study water samples from different rivers in my area, thanks for the video.
Just buy equipment and do it.
@@hermitcard4494 Deciding which scope is gonna take awhile.
@@remotaurog I just ordered the Swift 380T (and a 60x objective to stand in for the included oil objective) after seeing nothing but glowing reviews in comments on various channels and the affiliate link on this channel. I'm looking forward to hunting some microbes, and hopefully producing some decent photographs.
Without the microscope, we don't even know some much action is going on in a small beaker of water. Amazing! 😘

I enjoy this format - as a beginner, I find this video very helpful indeed. Thanks!
I particularly liked this livestream, even more than regular videos. Very immersive, right there with you.
Love it! I can't look at many samples where I live in the winter, so this is scratching that itch.
I love this -- serious Bob Ross vibes -- I'd definitely watch a livestream exploring the microcosmos with Oliver!
I Really enjoy watching your videos your Amazing and not too many people care to really shows what you do and Thank You for sharing with us and to be honest I never thought about these kinds of things until I started watching your videos I just love the way you bring it!
Life...is amazing. They still are investigating the complexity of life in organisms such as humans. Just recently they found a new bone cell they call "osteomorphs". There are probably quite a few more to be found.
This microbe video makes me even more leery of ever eating raw fish or even sushi. Thanks for this informative live microbe world, viewed from a slide!
Absolutly brilliant, Well done.
I just subbed. Very cool channel. You tube is notorious for unsubbing people at their will. Other you tubers tell their subs to check and make sure they are still subscribed
Thanks for the video. This is great content.
תודה על הסירטון המחכים !
אהבתי שאתה מסביר איך בדיוק אתה מכין את הדוגמית , ושאתה מראה מה אתה עושה זה מלמד הרבה
ככה אני ידע להשתמש יותר טוב במיקרוסקופ שלי, תודה.
This is awesome! I've come back to this video a few times now and I'm back because my microscope arrived, I hope it's sufficient to be able to see microbes. I don't know anything about it but you make it look so cool lol.
I injoyed.thank you for sharing this stuff and good information .
I also have two used gilson pipetman with disposable pipette tips in my home lab. And I actually use them often. For example when testing pH, NO3 ,... of the pond water or when staining to reduce the amount of stain.
this is amazing content! thank you so much for taking the time to share this!
I enjoyed listening to your biology insights as well as watching the fascinating microorganisms
You are doing a great job with your wonderful channel sir.. thanks a lot.
Great, really enjoy watching you "in real time" and please do more
Greetings to all! Worrying about Rotifers is just as interesting as other microanimals of the microcosm! Especially when they are feeding, at 400x they look like an airplane with 2 propellers!
i think its good that your starting to do live streams
more ! your monologue is very informative :)
Vorticelia - isn't that pasta ?
: ))))))
I JUST LOVE IT!!!
Great video. Wish I could get videos as clear as this. Thank you.👍
Thank you for uploading this✨
Loved the lecture! Very interesting.
Excellent video Oliver. Very engaging throughout which is not always so easy to achieve on spontaneous recording. This being your 184th video on this channel, it's occurred to me that to date you've never shown evidence of or made reference to micro plastics in your presentations therefore I'm left wondering if you've ever come across this at all in your samplings and how difficult they would be to identify anyway.
Microplastics (in the form of fibers) are quite common in water samples. I mention them here in this video: ruclips.net/video/1Ln_UDmenxs/видео.html
@@Microbehunter My bad. Thanks for the pointer (and reminder).
Hey Microbehunter. I recently joined your channel and absolutely loving your videos. Magnetotactic bacteria is quite getting famous these days because of its magnetotaxis behaviour under magnet influence. Can you make video on it ? I would really enjoy if my request gets accepted.
I just tried live-streaming my old microscope through my cellphone on Reddit! It was a lot of fun, and inspired by your unending interest :)
Amazing stuff, What kind of equipment do you use ?
Lot i love this!!!!!!!!! My whole week is better now
Very informative
Sir, I have a question for you: I'd like to get a microscope of the new beginning. Is the Omax md82 microscope good, I have read bad things about the slide holder in some comments. And I read that you have problems with not being able to examine the whole slide. But some people also said that these problems didn't pose a very big problem. What do you think of this microscope? I'm 12 years old, so if this microscope is bad, would you recommend it to me better? If it's good, I'd like to know if it's good, can you tell me? Thanks, greetings from Turkey... ❤️
From what I could find online, it is a standard microscope with DIN optics, so it will be useful in any case. These days most microscopes in this price range are perfectly fine. About the inability to look at the whole slide:I guess they want to say that the mechanical stage does not move all the way to the edge of the slide. This is not a problem, because the part that you want to look at is in the center of the slide anyway. I generally recommend microscopes with a phototube so that you can (later) also connect a camera more easily. Check the swift SW380T or the SW350T, but the Omax is similar to them.
@@Microbehunter Thank you very much... But for me, Swift is too expensive. Whereas I was thinking about getting a swift (sw380t). But it's expensive. So I decided to take the omax, and I wanted you to keep me informed. I found out the Omax microscope isn't bad. I hope I get my first microscope from an omax brand. Thank you very much too... Greetings from Turkey again. I love you...
Please do this again with fresh pond sample
nice old school Casio
Can the yeast in the bloodstream be detected? What about the outside of a strawberry before and after you wash it with water and a little vinegar? I would love to see these two. Probably you have done it before. Would you send me the link, please?
I Love this shit...I COULD LOOK AT THINGS AND DO THIS ALL DAMB DAY🧐😘...I just showed my son he's in his 20's done w/ school ,HE SAYS"EWW,WHY DO I WANNA LOOK AT THAT"? I TOLD HIM THAT IS LIFE,LIFE LIVING IN YOU !,IN WATER ,FOOD,COULD BE ON ANYTHING! YOU BREATHE IT IN👍👁️🧐💯‼️...THEN YOU SAID THE SAME,THAT IT'S LIFE😂🤭‼️
love the philosophy
Life is both mechanistic and vitalistic-material and spiritual.
Hi i really like your content so engaging
Do you have any pictures of Giardia in water?
I wonder if there are nanos inside water we drink. Because wen i warm it under a les lamp I see kind of rinks moving inside. Even in bottle water
Thank you so much sir for your efforts...please teach us that how we can make slides of phytoplankton samples collecting from freahwater....
Love from INDIA 🙏🙏
amazing thank you
what is the name of microscope that you used in that Video ???
Awesome videos very interesting. What kind of microscope is best for this kind ?
❤️ excellent
I think you used polarized light.
I'm correct?
Hi. Which magnification eyepiece you using? You only talking about Objectives, but not eyepieces, so, we don't know which magnification is that.
I only use 10x eyepieces. More is not necessary and has more disadvantages than advantages (lower field of view, etc)
@@Microbehunter Thanks, now I know which magnification you're using when says objective.
can you do soil microscopy video ???
Hello and thank you. Is there a website or pdf file or similar where we can see an image and the name of the creature and some caracteristics? For example of those we have seen here. Anybody knows?
What microscope is there? Nikon E-600?
Cool sir
Hi
I just take the water in my bathroom sink, i find worms💀
How do you prepare blood to see
Could those round structures / microbes maybe testate amoebaes?
There is an option that the highest form of life are intelligent self replicating machines. They can survive the largest range of varying environments, so the highest chance to spread in the galaxy. We might be just another step of evolution in that direction to bring them to life.
Thanks so much.
What microscope is that and what objectives did you you in the video?
Is the sun, our star, alive? Does it move is a complex and organised way? Does it eat and digest? Does it reproduce? ....rhetorical question, of course it does. Actually, if you look down your family tree ,you will be looking a grandma Solar, or whatever word you want to use.... Very hot, but that is your family situation.... ...things change.
Why don't you use some dyes?
Many of these kill of the microbes, because they chemically react with parts of the cells. Live staining is possible, but one has to take care that the stain is not poisonous for them (eg. use at low concentration).
These Worm Microbes I See With My Microscope
Can you also read us bedtime stories lol
@37:37
The fluid vortex seems to be injected by the microbe as naively observation of waste material ie as basic waist material???? anyone?
Also @39:39
Can intelligent life forms be described as commingling of cellular host (organs) servicing the plasma by it's regulatory logical mechanisms as a specialized cells...as the plasma would contain the highest form of intelligent life forms...if humans are built up by a cellular process specializing yet commingling as an ecosystem biologically self propelled self perpetuating using basic logical construct creating a self aware biological feedback loop logically perpetuating itself if we want to exclude the creation dogma' from the scientifically observation????
With that said wouldn't it behove everyone of us who has become aware of Creation find it a little discomforting that a simple entity such a a cellular device has the ability to decimate an entire ecological ecosystem built on basic biological logic!
Have a great day,....
Are you trying to sound like a genius
Heliozoans - how do they move?
They don't move much. By slowly moving the spikes, or they are carried away by the water flow.
@@Microbehunter thanx
A+
the spice must flow
Anybody found macroviruses?
if your watch would reproduce, I woud declare it alive.
What microscope is that?
Olympus microscope
@@Microbehunter Is that your new microscope? I believe you were using CX40 before.
@@thealignmentguy9139 The microscope he had before was CH40 not CX, the one here is an Olympus BX53
Kosmos 😉
What about our tap water?
Contains very few bacteria. Not interesting to observe.
@@Microbehunter has other chemical contaminates?
Hi. A humble request that I think can help humanity:
¿Can you review some of the popular portable microscopes in internet advertised as 200x to 1000x magnification and give information about it?
The reason:
I have a Carson MM-300 portable 60x-120x microscope. Then I saw 1000x portables with 4-5 user reviews on Amazon and I wanted one. BUT I found suspicious that all the images from the buyers and users were things I could normally see with the 60x-120x I already own. Then I looked for reviews on internet and youtube and in all of them the reviewer is SO HAPPY AND EXCITED to show how his 1,000x microscope WORKS and using it to see... Insects, coins, fabric, leaves, stuff. Which leads me to suspect those 1,000x microscopes are a SCAM perpetrated by people's ignorance. Hell, maybe the one I got isn't even 120x as it claims to be since in some RUclips videos at 100x I should be able to see some microorganisms.
So, can you give professional opinion on this, so people are better informed instead of spreading happy ignorance to perpetrate more scams? Thank you for your time even if you decide you won't.
Those hand-held 1000x USB microscopes are indeed very misleading. As a matter of fact, because they display an image on screen (and not by looking through an eyepiece), the magnification can not even be compared to conventional microscopes. There are two different definitions of magnification and they can not be compared. It is possible to get pretty much any magnification on screen, if one zooms in very much. The larger the image displayed on screen, the more the magnification. But this is a different magnification than the one obtained when looking through an eyepiece. In that sense a magnification setting on a usb microscope actually does not even make sense, because you can also adjust it by changing the display size.
RO water under microscope
I was so disgusted by maggots and into essential oils.One night I cooked macaroni and cheese,but left the cheese sauce SEPERATE,cause my son only wanted the noodles,long story short...It was late,I left it on stove over night,got up next morning removed lid to wash the pan....trillions of moving "micro" sized maggots!!!🤢🤮💯‼️... So many ,the whole cheese sauce,that you could actually hear them🤮🤢...Anywho...I lined some up on my sink and dripped essential oil on them like 3 different kinds,to see what killed them the fastest...TEA TREE WON👁️👍💯‼️...BUT NEEDLESS TO SAY...I DON'T TOUCH LIQUID ,NACHO TYPES OF CHEESE...EVER‼️‼️‼️‼️🤢🤮🤭
Everything evolves, everything replicates, everything arises and subsides. So if you evolved from super nova remnants, aren't they in your family tree? If yes, a distinction "this is alive, this is not" breaks down, no? Does our sun metabolize?
I guess the question that you refer to is, where one should draw the line. How complex do chemical reactions have to be in order to be considered life? Where to draw a line (or should we even draw one) in a gray-zone? Are self-replicating computer programs (computer viruses) alive? Will a computer with artificial intelligence sooner or later even develop consciousness? Ludwig Wittgenstein, the philosopher, would probably have said that it is also a question of language and definition. The first simple forms of reproduction were most likely self-copying molecules of RNA. Are they already life? Even here the border seems to be not clear-cut. Maybe the problem is, that we try to categorize things into two boxes, life and not-life and that nature maybe does not want to be categorized, because it is in a continuum. Maybe indeed the problem is us humans trying to put concepts into distinct boxes, even though such boxes not not exist in nature. I quit now, before I get carried away too much....
@@Microbehunter two more points there, first consider scale (larger and smaller). Is our galaxy alive if it contains life? Or can a container (e.g. a human body) be dead even if it contains life? Then on smaller scales, certainly the complexity of life does not end with the atom. Then about replication, everything replicates or it would not exist, because nothing is static. For example stars replicate or they would have all gone out of existence.
@@thomasschwarz1973 And then there is the Gaia-Hypotheis, which states that the whole world and all of it life forms can be considered as one giant super-organism. Just like the individual cells of our body make up the human body, the individual organisms on earth can be seen just as the "cells" of a larger world, which is one organism.
@@Microbehunter The microscope does seem to confirm this hypothesis. Slime molds are alive and can differentiate their cells and act as an individual would, they go beyond what I would think of as a colony. From there its a short step to biofilms and microcosms such as a rhizosphere controlled by a plant/fungi symbiotic team. We dont question that our DNA and our mitochondrion are both "us" despite being endosymbionts.
In physics there comes a point when language can no longer describe the equations because the structure of language assumes time is something different than what it actually is. Life has a quick description, my cat is alive but my hat is not, but to really pin it down to answer whether a virus is alive or not? Language might just not be up to the task.
Concrats with your new microscope. Dic?
Yes!
I am jealous to the bone. I am starting a microscopy channel too, but for the foreseeable future only with a Chinascope, i am afraid (but i am a wizard with lightning and video editing). Again congratulations
These days decent "China" microscopes are able to provide very good results. If the specimens are interesting and if you are patient selecting and preparing the specimens, then you do not need fancy hardware. Try oblique illumination for a DIC similar effect. Costs nothing and modifications are easy to do. Increase the quality by increasing contrast and color adjustment in the video editor and you will be surprised what one can do.
@@Microbehunter i know, oblique doesn't do it for me, but i have a darkfield condenser and i experimenting with a nice idea. You'll hear from me
You talk about some tough topics in the video production space! We like what you talk about, keep going. Anytime you're in Scottsdale let us know. If you want, DM us @dmakproductions on Instagram and we can connect. You kill it!
Me vere sxatas cxi tiun formon. Ankaux via eksplikajxo, historio de defino de vivo estis interesa.
I loved this video, walking through the process of finding these microbes was very enlightening. It would be nice if you could also identify the extraneous things in the field, eg the plant cells etc., and if you could describe the microscope setup before you begin' You have inspired me to take up this hobby once again in my 70s. Well done, keep up the good work.
Great video! An advantage of a live stream is that we can ask questions while you teach us more microscopy. Keep up the great video's!
I found this format very interesting. It gave me a more real take on the search for life in water samples
"Bacteria are completely homogeneous"? Are you sure? Or is that the great human ignorance, again and again, we think we have a monolith.... a flat earth, a unit that is indivisible, but then.... doah! again there are smaller (and larger) components.... speaking for myself, I am absolutely certain that there is infinite complexity in greater and smaller scales....
“I am absolutely certain,” is a religious sentiment. Mazeltov on your squaring of the circle.
