A research team at the University of Tokyo has built a fluorescence microscopy system that can detect fleeting magnetic ...

The conventional microscopy is limited by the diffraction limit which is 250 nanometers. Thus, it is rather difficult to resolve objects that are smaller than that. However, some improvements have ...

Fluorescence is the foundation of our core. The bulk of instruments available for high resolution imaging at the OiVM are based on fluorescence. Fluorescence microscopy is a type of imaging where the ...

A Linnik interferometer microscope is designed to take high-resolution images of the surface topography of a sample. The device works by splitting a beam of illuminating light in two, with one beam ...

The capabilities of the shared microscopy facility include brightfield, phase contrast, and both 2-D and 3-D fluorescence imaging. The OLYMPUS BX51 research microscope is a union of Olympus infinity ...

Engineers are developing their FlatScope as a fluorescent microscope able to capture three-dimensional data and produce images from anywhere within the field. Lenses are no longer necessary for some ...

After it fills with cargo, the pit pinches off to form a clathrin-coated, membrane-bound vesicle inside the cell, which then proceeds to its proper destination. In cultured cells, hundreds of these ...

A handful of imaging methods developed in recent years have pushed the resolution of optical microscopy down to the nanoscale. Giving scientists the ability to pinpoint the positions of reacting ...

Researchers commonly employ fluorescence microscopy to characterize molecular, cellular, and developmental processes in depth. Despite its benefits, scientists can face challenges when imaging their ...

Some of biology’s most visually striking images come from fluorescence microscopes. Their brilliant colors on black look like a neon sign from an empty highway. A brand new fluorescence microscope is ...
