Excerpt from Elementary Chemical Microscopy

The American chemist, usually ready to accept with alacrity all time, labor and money saving devices, has been strangely backward in taking advantage of the benefits to be gained through the intelligent application of chemical microscopic methods in the industries and in research. He has also failed to grasp the fact that the modern microscope is, in reality, a more important adjunct to his laboratory than spectrometer, polarimeter or refractometer; in fact, it may be said that the microscope is entitled to as important a place as the analytical balance. No one other instrument can perform so many functions and do them all well.

This curious reluctance to grasp the opportunities offered is the more extraordinary, when we recall that the earliest comprehensive work dealing with microchemical methods was from the pen of an American - Theodore G. Wormley - whose classic "The Microchemistry of Poisons" appeared in 1867.

The failure of the chemists to obtain from the microscope all that the instrument is capable of yielding is, perhaps, largely due, first, to the fact that few of them are given an opportunity of becoming sufficiently familiar with the instrument and its accessories; second, they are not aware of the great variety of problems which are solvable through the microscope, nor of the specific sort of problems for the investigation of which this is the instrument par excellence; third, there has been a lack of elementary manuals covering the field, and for this reason the microscope has been looked upon as an instrument peculiar to the biological laboratory.

One application, if no other, should appeal to every chemist, that of microscopic qualitative analysis, because of its enormous saving of time, labor, material and space, yet with increased sensitiveness of tests and greater certainty of results.
