The OLYMPUS BX51 research microscope is a union of Olympus infinity corrected optical systems (UIS2 – universal infinity system) and advanced fluorescence or differential interference contrast DIC ...

Emission signal from this volume is collected by a CCD camera positioned perpendicular to this plane – imaging the entire XY dimension as you would in a traditional epifluorescence microscope. The ...

New research from Portland State University focused on identifying signs of life—biosignatures—in extreme environments here ...

While confocal microscopy uses a pinhole to reject out-of-focus light to generate the optical section, a multi-photon (or 2-photon) microscope uses a pulsed infrared laser to stimulate fluorescence ...

Optical microscopes depend on light, of course, but they are also limited by that same light. Typically, anything under 200 nanometers just blurs together because of the wavelength of the light ...

The approach is easy to integrate into an existing optical microscope set-up and results in good-quality images. On the ...

Repeated administration of imaging agents to the mouse brain during live multiphoton microscopy is enabled by a newly developed delivery system. This low-profile cannula, implanted at a shallow angle, ...

Introduction to SNOM: The Scanning Near-field Optical Microscope (SNOM) stands as a pivotal analytical tool in nanotechnology, enabling the visualization of nanostructures with resolution beyond the ...

Time-lapse 3D optical coherence microscopy and bright field imaging of mouse embryo development reveals microstructures from one-cell to blastocyst, potentially improving embryo quality assessment ...

What is the Diffraction Limit? The diffraction limit is a fundamental barrier in optical microscopy that sets the minimum size of features that can be resolved using conventional light microscopes. It ...

Nikon Corporation announces the 100th anniversary of the launch of its JOICO microscope, marking the beginning of the company's current healthcare business unit.What started as a simple microscope ...
