    Really nice video. Huge amount of effort went into making this i see. Even though you didn't use your microscope in the video, it was very interesting nonetheless. Thank you for never uploading a boring video. It's always informative, fun to watch and i always want to use my microscope after i'm done watching.

    The type of effort put in to these videos, for basically just the benefit of others, kids etc.. is exactly the type of ethic that needs to be demonstrated by most mature adults.. kudos my friend!
    Unselfish sharing of knowledge for benefit of everyone is tough to find bc some parrot is always trying to take credit somewhere for someone else’s hard work.

    You know, this is very helpful. Not this video only, all your videos are a wealth of information. But this one helps me understand how small are things in comparison, and understand the limitations of my microscope, and WHY those limitations are there. It is not the same to observe small parts of animals, or bugs, than viruses. Makes it very real world and explainable.

    When I worked at the Science and Technology Facilities Council (STFC) in the UK, I visited their laboratory in Daresbury after they'd installed a new electron microscope. They were still testing it and I happened to see a TV screen with what looked like a bunch of grey table-tennis balls packed together in a regular pattern. I asked the technician what they were. She told me they were atoms. I came away somewhat dazed as I realised what I had just seen!

    Accidentally happened on your film . Excellent ! Digressing , have you looked at electronic integrated circuits ? Eproms are a good place to start , as they have a quartz glass window for erasing data from the memory cells , & it's quite easy to view with a stereo 'scope . Other chips need to be carefully broken open . Some of the ceramic packages can be opened by holding one half in a vice , then seperating the top with an old wood chisel .

    • @Microbehunter

      change the distance of the phone to the eyepiece. You should see the same with the phone as with your eyes. If the phone is too close or too far away, then you do not see the full image, but only a smaller circle.

    What are your thoughts on using resonate frequency to selectivley kill bacteria and viruses?

    • @Microbehunter
      @Microbehunter  4 ปีที่แล้ว

      It is possible to use ultrasound to break apart cells. I have used this method in lab before. The cells are in suspension and this ultrasound generator (which looks like a "stick") is placed into the liquid. The tip of the "stick" vibrates quickly and this breaks apart cells. I know that some toilets (urinals) use something like this to save water, but I don't know how effective this is. I guess it depends on how far the ultrasound travels and on other issues. I can, however, hardly imagine that one could use it instead of UV light (which is used in labs and hospitals) to disinfect, though. Ultrasound is not selective, though. It can not distinguish between "good" and "bad" bacteria, but I guess it depends on the size of the cell (so that it resonates with the sound).

Bless you and thank you so much for putting all this work together helping us all understand the micro world. Question do you have a degree? I don't care if you do or not but I am curious, and low-key hoping you don't. You make learning fun and I think you should be a professor whether or not you have a degree as long as you are willing to have your class examined before actually giving lectures to students.
