abstract: Results of the research made in the Pharmacy Museum (U.B.A.) to determine age and use of a binoculars microscope donated in 1987. Its donor said it had belonged to the chemist and physician Gullermo Paterson, who brought it to the country in 1894 and used it for the studies which made him well-known. This is what was proved: it was made in England around 1850-1894 and it can't be the one used for his works because it has only one objective, very little magnification lenses and a limited brightness.
