Epifluorescent microscopy is capable of generating images of certain fluorescent samples; however, the sample will appear indistinct if the sample reaches a thickness greater than micrometers. This is ...

The first major benefit of confocal microscopes is the level of detail which can be achieved. With an already impressive horizontal resolution of 0.2 microns and vertical resolution of 0.5 confocal ...

As one of the world’s leading manufacturers of professional optical and digital products for medicine, science, and industry, Olympus celebrates 100 years of innovation in 2019. Olympus provides ...

Super-resolution microscopy can come in different forms, but structured illumination microscopy (SIM) is one of the more common approaches. In this technique, grid projections are used to increase the ...

Researchers use laboratory tools every day to help them make groundbreaking discoveries. Read on to find out which ...

When one thinks about microscopy, it seems to be mostly qualitative. Looking at a slide teeming with bacteria or protozoans is less about making measurements and more about recognizing features and ...

Microscopy platforms able to monitor large populations of cells in living specimens are increasingly vital for understanding neuronal activity, but scanning microscope technologies with micron-scale ...

The Olympus FluoView FV1000 Confocal Microscope is a laser scanning biological microscope. It minimizes specimen damage during high-speed imaging of living organisms. It accurately captures a full ...

We’ve all likely seen the amazing images possible with a scanning electron microscope. An SEM can yield remarkably detailed 3D images of the tiniest structures, and they can be invaluable tools for ...

UIUC's platform, christened Stomata In-Sight, combines laser scanning confocal microscopy, gas exchange instruments and ...
