[Birdbrain] is trying to make their own microfluidic devices. To aid in this quest, they need a quality microscope to see what they’re doing. Instead of buying one outright, they purchased a cheap ...

Anyone who has ever used a microscope knows that it takes time to bring a sample into sharp focus. Each time you move the slide, the image blurs, and you have to stop and carefully turn a knob to ...

Which digital microscopes are best? Whether an academic researcher or a casual hobbyist, the microscope is an essential part of nearly every scientist’s toolkit. While all microscopes let you examine ...

Small modifications to an ordinary optical microscope have helped turn it into a powerful instrument that can be used for studying complex cellular biology in real time at the nanoscale level. And ...

(Nanowerk News) Researchers at the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) and their collaborators have developed a way to retrofit the transmission electron microscope -- a ...

MR. BECK has in this little book collected and set out in elementary form a considerable amount of information useful to the microscopist. The optics of the instrument are described in a simple manner ...

Researchers have developed a way to retrofit the transmission electron microscope -- a long-standing scientific workhorse for making crisp microscopic images -- so that it can also create high-quality ...
