The resolution of the microscope, which is determined by factors like the wavelength of light used and the numerical aperture of the lens, sets a limit on how small the details can be resolved. Additionally, the contrast between different structures in the sample can impact visibility, with stains or special techniques sometimes needed to enhance contrast. The sample itself may also present limitations, such as being too thick for light to pass through effectively.

Can you see protein with a light microscope?

No, proteins are too small to be seen with a light microscope. They are typically smaller than the wavelength of light used in a light microscope, which limits the resolution to structures larger than approximately 200 nanometers. To visualize proteins, techniques such as electron microscopy or fluorescence microscopy are used.
