  Microscope slide - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
A microscope slide is a thin sheet of glass used to hold objects for examination under a microscope.
Adding a drop of water to the slide at the very edge of the cover glass will result in water being taken in under the cover glass (capillary effect).
For example, a graticule slide is a microscope slide that is marked with a grid of lines (for example, a 1 mm grid) that allow the size of objects seen under magnification to be easily estimated.

Graticules for particle size analysis are particularly popular when there are only limited quantities of particles or where particles are smaller than 50 microns in diameter.
The basic principle employed is to compare particles to the globes and circles of varying sizes that appear on the graticule – dark particles being compared to solids globes, and light or transparent ones to the circles.
With this graticule the proportion of points lying over the image of one type of component is statistically proportional to the area occupied by that component.

 Microscopy UK / MICSCAPE : Drawing through the microscope
When used for the measurement of a specimen, graticules normally need to be used in conjunction with a stage micrometer, this being a standard size 3" x 1" glass slide engraved with a scale which is placed on the microscope stage.
Graticules and stage micrometers are generally available from microscope dealers, but they are fairly expensive; graticules cost up to 10 and stage micrometer slides about 20 to 25.
Graticules can usually be purchased in 19 and 21 mm diameter sizes with cross-lines, scales or square grid to fit conventional eyepieces on biological microscopes, and 25 mm diameter for stereo microscopes.

Place a prepared slide on the stage so that the specimen is directly under the objective lens.
The graticule is inserted into the eyepiece lens of the microscope, and the scale is usually 10 mm long, divided into 100 divisions, referred to as eyepiece units.
When a specimen is observed using a microscope with an eyepiece graticule, the scale is superimposed on the specimen.

Mostly air under cover slip – too little water was used (increase by 1 drop) or cover glass was improperly dropped onto specimen.
Too much liquid under cover slip – cover glass slides around easily on glass slide, and may fall off if slide not held perfectly level.
Cover slip "rocks" on specimen or is clearly not laying flat – either the specimen or something in the sample (a grain of sand for example) is preventing the cover slip from coming down far enough to adhere to the slide.

 Barry Knight: MEASURING PARTICULATES IN HISTORIC BUILDINGS: A COMPARISON OF METHODOLOGIES
For both the slides and the sticky pads, the number of particles and area covered were measured using the microscope camera, and the decrease in reflectance of the slides was subsequently measured by Stuart Adams.
The glass slides were sampled at 5 mm intervals in a 10 x 5 grid, so as to get good coverage of the whole slide, while the sticky pads were examined more randomly, though trying to avoid overlapping fields as far as possible.
When the slides are examined with the microscope, the light is incident at 90° so the area of the shadow of the particle is the same as the its area projected onto the plane of the slide.

 BBC - 16+ SOS Teacher - Biology Biotechnology Calibration
The eyepiece graticule is a small scale that fits in the eyepiece lens and the slide micrometer is a scale usually 10 mm with 0.1 mm graduations.
To complete the calibration, view the slide micrometer on low power with the eyepiece graticule in place and you will see the graticule over the micrometer and can measure the length on the micrometer that the graticule scale is equal to, at that power.
In practise this means that when viewing cells or specimens under a microscope you can measure their actual length using the eyepiece graticule and using the calibrated figures.
