Information for Students


Welcome to Adelaide Microscopy, a centrally located laboratory within the Adelaide CBD which houses the University of Adelaide's Electron and Confocal microscopes in addition to a suite of other tools including X-ray microtomography and sample preparation equipment. Postgraduate students of the University are trained to use the equipment at Adelaide Microscopy and their projects are charged at nominal student rates.

The centre's microscopes provide high resolution imaging of biological (tissue, plant etc) and physical materials down to nano- dimensions. They also provide analytical information through x-ray analysis. Tools such as the confocal microscope and x-ray microtomography can provide 3-dimensional images of your sample .

We provide:

  • Hands-on training for independent student operation of microscopes by highly skilled microscopists. Training sessions for microscopes can be arranged by booking microscope time. Training for sample preparation can be arranged by contacting Adelaide Microscopy.
  • Expert assistance and guidance with preparation techniques of biological and materials samples for optical, electron and x-ray microscopy.
  • Network access to images and data produced at the centre.
