Scientists have developed the first adaptive light-sheet microscope -- an instrument that continuously analyzes and adapts to dynamic changes in a specimen and thereby improves spatial resolution.

Optimal image quality in light-sheet microscopy requires a perfect overlap between the illuminating light sheet and the focal plane of the detection objective. However, mismatches between the ...

A new microscopy technique allowing biologists to see more detail in living specimens without damaging them with intense light has been developed by researchers in the US, Europe and Japan. The method ...

Our facility provides three visible-wavelength laser point scanning confocal systems suitable for creating multi-dimensional images of living or non-living samples. Specimens labeled with single or ...

Zooming in: image of mouse embryo. (Courtesy: Gail McConnell/University of Strathclyde) A new microscope lens that offers the unique combination of a large field of view with high resolution has been ...

Since 1987, Sarasota's Dennis Brock has been producing the Brock Magiscope, which draws from ambient light and minimizes ...

In this interview, News Medical speaks to Dr. Manasa Gudheti of Bruker Nano Surfaces about biological specimens and how to acquire super-resolution images of them. The 2014 Nobel Prize in Chemistry ...

The secret of capturing exquisite brain images with a new generation of custom-built microscopes has been revealed. The new microscopes, known as mesoSPIMs, can image the minute detail of brain tissue ...

The family of electron microscopy techniques have become staple methods for imaging nanoscale objects, including nanoparticles, viruses and proteins. The appeal of electron microscopy as a ...

Researchers say the innovation, known as SmartEM, will speed scanning sevenfold and open the field of connectomics to a ...

Constructed from sturdy materials, with interchangeable stage plates, the Celestron Labs S10-60 has a professional, robust feel, provides a wide range of low-powered, clear, 3D images and is a useful ...
