Instructions for Boosting Your Microscope’s Power to Examine Your Own Samples
Presented in this work are instructions for building an affordable yet fairly powerful microscope imager using a microscope and a typical webcam used with computers. This setup will allow anyone to get acceptable images of samples that have been discussed in the most recent Carnicom papers regarding the pathogens being found in people blood, gums, etc. A concerned citizen wrote to Carnicom in this paper, and describes using a Logitech Quick Cam, an empty film canister, and tape to enhance the magnification of a standard microscope by the use of a webcam's CCD sensor. It is noted that there is ample concern to have as many people reproduce Carnicom's results by the use of such a setup as is described here.
