DANGER!
Be exremely carfeful when dealing with hot wax, as there is
a danger of being burned.
Then, dip the specimen several times in the liquid wax. Allow the wax that
encases the specimen to harden. Use a MicroCut or other small knife or
scalpel to make very thin slices of the object in its wax casing.
DANGER!
Be extremely careful when using the MicroCut, knife or scalpel.
These instruments are very sharp and pose a risk of injury.
Place the slices on a glass slide and cover them with another slide before
attempting to view them with the microscope.
5.3. Creation of your own preparation
Put the object to be observed on a glass slide and cover the object with a
drop of distilled water using the pipette (21).
Set a cover glass (available at a well-stocked hobby shop) perpendicular
to the edge of the water drop, so that the water runs along the edge of the
cover glass. Now lower now the cover glass slowly over the water drop.
6. Experiments
What you need to know
Caution!
When using your experiment set, wear an apron (or old clothing) and rub-
14
ber 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 your research. Use the following web link to
find interesting experiments ou can tr out.

You can do them with the individual parts of your experiment set.
Prepared Slides
The prepared slides contain a QR code. Read a QR code on your smart-
phone to learn more about the specimen.
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.
