The EXFO X-Cite 120 fluorescent source has a light spectrum similar to that of conventional mercury lamps, but lasts much longer, providing a 1500-hr bulb life. Olympus Life and Material Science ...

Explore how correlative light and electron microscopy (CLEM) enables high-resolution insights into endocytic sorting.

Biologists are very interested in how proteins, lipids and other compounds are organized and interact in systems. Very few organizational details can be gained by using standard transmission-based ...

Conventional light microscopy has been instrumental for the study of cells and microorganisms; fluorescence microscopy has enabled visualization of even smaller cell features by selectively adding ...

Light-sheet fluorescence microscopy makes it possible to record three-dimensional images with high acquisition speed and high spatial resolution. However, in conventional light-sheet microscopes, it ...

Scientists have developed a new imaging technique that uses a novel contrast mechanism in bioimaging to merge the strengths ...

Add Yahoo as a preferred source to see more of our stories on Google. Composite of three mages from new microscope technology show a cell's replication machinery in green, already-replicated DNA is ...

Advancing our understanding of the human brain will require new insights into how neural circuitry works in mammals, including laboratory mice. These investigations require monitoring brain activity ...

Light microscopy is a key tool that scientists use to image cells, organelles, subcellular structures, and molecules such as proteins and nucleic acids. Because visible light leaves biological ...

Chip technology presents a whole different view on microscopy. Chips are compact and can integrate multiple functionalities. The scaling possibilities could allow chip-based microscopes to be produced ...
