This resource is an index of 17 interactive virtual microscopy techniques.   The user manipulates focus, intensity, magnification, and translation in a manner identical to real-life microscopy.  Techniques include SEM (scanning electron microscopy), translational, laser scanning confocal, phase contrast, integrated circuit inspection, polarized light, optical staining, and flourescence combination microscopies.

Please note that this resource requires Java.
