Biologists are very interested in how proteins, lipids and other compounds are organized and interact in systems. Very few organizational details can be gained by using standard transmission-based ...

Cells In A New Light By combining the sensitivity of fluorescent dyes with optical systems that can detect colorful but low-intensity fluorescent light, researchers in many life sciences are able to ...

An international collaboration led by the University Medical Center Göttingen (UMG), Germany, has developed a labeling method that distinguishes fluorescent labels not by color but by how long it ...

In this interview, Claudia Florindo talks about what matters when comparing benchtop fluorescence microscopes. What prompted Oxford Instruments to produce this buyer's guide, and what gaps or ...

Including over 30 invited talks from renowned researchers, selected short talks and a poster session, the conference will showcase recent developments, discuss remaining challenges, and foster ...

Selective plane illumination microscopy (SPIM) is a type of light sheet fluorescence microscopy (LSFM), which is one such 3D imaging technique employing a thin sheet of light to illuminate cleared ...

Thanks to a recent study by researchers at IOCB Prague, it is now possible to monitor processes in living cells more effectively than before, including responses to drugs and changes in cellular ...

In recent years, fluorescence quenching microscopy (FQM) 1-3 has emerged as a viable technique that allows for the swift, cost-effective, and accurate imaging of two-dimensional (2D) materials like ...

Based on a cell phone camera, electrical and bioengineers at the University of California Los Angeles (UCLA) have developed a technology that can capture images from a fluorescent microscope and flow ...

An inverted microscope is an optical microscope that positions the objective lens below the sample stage, characterized by a structure that allows for the observation of cells, tissues, and liquid ...
