In warm humid climates, take special care to prevent your equipment from
exposure to fungal growth.
Dust Protection
Be sure to use the supplied dust cover with your microscope after each work
session.
Cleaning
Dust and fibers can cause “background fluorescence” during fluorescence
microscopy so keeping your microscope clean can help the overall quality of your
work.
Cleaning of Painted Surfaces
Use a soft brush or lint-free cotton cloth to removed dust and loose particles.
Tough dirt can be removed with some water and a mild detergent.
NEVER USE ACETONE OR OTHER HARSH CHEMICALS.
Painted or plastic surfaces should not be tarnished or etched with cleaning
agents that are too powerful.
To clean painted surfaces, use a moistened lint-free cotton cloth with mild soapy
water.
