What factors affect the quality of image obtained using a light microscope? How can staining techniques be used to enhance the quality of the image?

Really want to know the answer from professionals like people in this forum. Answers highly appreciated. Thanks .

It would help if you were to copy the precise question here. I feel it is a vague question to begin with. All steps prior to microscopy you do have to be optimized to get the best image.

0. Proper section thickness (ideally between 2 and 7 micron thickness).
1. Optimized fixation
2. Optimized staining
3. Use of counter-stains (for example, if you are looking at cytoplasm, also counter-stain nuclei)
4. Proper mounting (no bubbles, clean coverslips etc).
5. Proper storage.
