Identification and insemination of the queen bee under a microscope

The relationship between humans and bees has existed for more than 10,000 years. The beekeeper who handles the bees today and keeps them as a supplier of honey and wax must make a controlled selection according to his breeding goals. This includes the artificial insemination of the queen. This requires equipment consisting of the actual insemination device for sperm transfer, a stereo microscope for optical control and cold light as a suitable light source. The microscope used for this can also be used to mark a queen bee with a color code. All manipulations are possible under the microscope. A magnification of 10x is usual
