Selecting the appropriate objective lens depends on the specific requirements of the histological study. Considerations include:
- Specimen Type: Different tissues may require varying levels of magnification and resolution. - Staining Techniques: Certain lenses are better suited for specific staining methods, such as fluorescence or bright-field microscopy. - Image Quality: Higher-end lenses, such as apochromatic and fluorite lenses, are preferred for detailed structural analysis.
