Optical Microscopy. Macro and high magnification optical, phase contrast, polarized light,  DIC, and  fluorescence microscopy. The most commonly applied technique in particle identification is optical microscopy and digital micrographs. It is inexpensive, quick, and, when done with a trained eye, identifies the largest number of contaminant particles. With experience, a microscopist can recognize a specific particle on sight. Physical characteristics such as shape, size, color, texture and optical properties are used for identification.  Other methods involve subject materials that are  illuminated with light of a specific wavelength (or wavelengths) which is absorbed by the fluorophores, causing light emission of longer wavelengths (i.e., of a different color than the absorbed light). The illumination light is separated from the much weaker emitted fluorescence through the use of a spectral emission filter. Fluorophores can be  used to label specimens in this manner, the distribution of a single fluorophore (color) is imaged at a time. Multi-color images of several types of fluorophores must be composed by combining several single-color images. Fluorescence microscopes are epifluorescence microscopes, where excitation of the fluorophore and detection of the fluorescence are done through the same light path (i.e. through the objective). Olympus and Nikon microscopy micro-photographic and associated software systems.
