I'm taking a microbiology lab, and on Thursday I have to do a gram stain as a practicum. I can do the whole procedure, and I can find the culture on 10x and 40x, but as soon as I have to find it on 100x, I'm lost! I'm using a typical Brightfield student microscope. And I use the immersion oil on 100x. What am I doing wrong? No matter where I move the slide to or adjust it, I still don't see anything? And I know it's not the microscope because my TA has found things before that I couldn't. Any help would be great! Thanks =)
