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 ...

LMU researchers have developed a method to determine how reliably target proteins can be labeled using super-resolution fluorescence microscopy. Modern microscopy techniques make it possible to ...

Understanding how living cells grow, respond to stimuli, and change over time is central to modern cell biology and drug discovery. Many traditional imaging approaches rely on fluorescent labels, ...

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 ...

A team from The Hebrew University of Jerusalem has introduced a new method for megapixel-scale fluorescence microscopy through complex scattering media. This approach resolves high-resolution images ...

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 ...

Researchers have built a reconfigurable light-sheet microscope that lets users swap oil, water and air objectives while staying diffraction-limited across samples from single cells to cleared tissue.

As light travels deeper into the brain, it scatters. Three-photon microscopy, the current state of the art, reduces the ...

A new microscopy platform reached depths of 2.1 mm in the mouse brain, imaging activity in the hippocampus and striatum while ...
