The electron microscope is used to see cells and other miniscule objects that are too small for light microscopes. It shoots electrons to detect the shape of the object viewed under the microscope. It can magnify up to 2 million times, while the best of light microscopes are confined to about 2000 times.

What type of microscope can be used to study a viruses?

As viruses cannot be seen with the optical microscope, electron microscopes are used. All the "lenses" in an electron microscope are magnetic fields produced by electromagnets and/or electrostatic fields produced by electrically charged metal plates and/or rings.


Which microscope can be used to visualize DNA or botulinum toxin?

An electron microscope, particularly a transmission electron microscope, can be used to visualize DNA as its electrons have a shorter wavelength enabling higher resolution. For botulinum toxin, a scanning electron microscope can also be used to visualize its structure due to its high magnification capabilities.
