Scope

This part of ISO 8036 specifies requirements for immersion oil for general use in light microscopy in the visible spectral range. NOTE 1 Visible spectral range is defined as being the wavelength range from 400 nm to 760 nm. Owing to its optical effect, immersion oil forms part of the optical system of a microscope; this part of ISO 8036 specifies the requirements which shall be met to ensure image quality. NOTE 2 This part of ISO 8036 does not cover requirements for suitability for fluorescence microscopy; immersion oil suitable for fluorescence microscopy will be dealt with in ISO 8036-2.
