The use of high-resolution bright-field microscopy is essential for cellular-scale biological research, but this technique has limitations due to low image contrast. Using dyes on the sample can ...

Until today, skin, brain, and all tissues of the human body were difficult to observe in detail with an optical microscope, since the contrast in the image was hindered by the high density of their ...

LMU researchers have developed a super-resolution microscopy method for the rapid differentiation of molecular structures in 3D. Super-resolution microscopy methods are essential for uncovering the ...

Researchers at the University of Hong Kong have developed a new microscopy technique that ...

Confocal microscopy is a specialized fluorescence imaging technique that scientists use to acquire images at greater resolution than conventional microscopy. 1 In addition to scanning the lateral x ...

Stanford researchers have developed a microscope that can show how nanostructures interact inside living cells at the highest resolution achieved so far. The view into living cells just got better. St ...

Living organisms are complex systems with scales of organization spanning the range from Angstroms to meters. Even when consideration is limited to single cells and smaller, there is still a range of ...

A new microscopy method enables researchers to visualize the activity of the enzymes caspase-3 and alkaline phosphatase in various biological samples (Nat. Methods 2024, DOI: ...

Imagine building a traffic surveillance camera that could detect trouble-making cells speeding around in your brain before their cellular gang could commit "crimes." Most importantly, this camera ...
