Handheld Microscopes & Magnification

What can be better than having your students go out and collect their own samples, taking one of our Hand-Held Microscopes along to explore in the field? Check out our Mini Inspector, Jeweler's Eye Loupes, and Plastic Magnifiers. Your students can use these while they're outside investigating the environment or at their desks checking out the inside world of printed material, hair samples, or even fabric swatches.
