Summary Introduction
The microscopes are the instrument that is used to visualize the objects or living organisms that cannot be viewed in naked eye, is observed using the microscope. Various types of microscopes are available in the field of biology; some are simple microscope, light microscope, electron microscope, digital microscope, and scanning probe microscope (SPM).
