English term or phrase: stage micrometer
One method is to view the sample of droplets with a microscope fitted with a graticule such as a Porton G12 graticule .(Figure 4.19). The microscope must have a mechanical stage to line up the stains or craters on the sampling surface with a series of lines on the graticule. The distance between these lines frordthe baseline Z increases by a J2 progression. A stage micrometer is needed to calibrate the graticule. Use of the graticule is laborious if large numbers of samples require measurement and alternative methods have been devised to increase speed and accuracy. Automatic scanning of samples using an image-analysing computer is much more rapid provided the image of droplets is sharply contrasted against the background (Jepson et al., 1987; Last et al., 1987). Wolf et al. (1999) and Fritz et al. (2009) used DropletScan software to measure droplets collected on water-sensitive cards.
