In confocal microscopy, image formation of structures outside the microscope's focus is suppressed by using an arrangement of pinholes that act as a point light source and a point detector.

The basic scheme here is known as confocal laser scanning fluorescence microscopy, where a laser at one wavelength excites fluorescent tags bound to structures in a sample. Light emitted by the ...

Current concepts in light and electron microscopy and scanning probe techniques. Theory and practice of fluorescence (including confocal and multi-photon), atomic force, scanning and transmission ...

The confocal microscope is equipped with 4 detectors, one of which is a highly sensitive hybrid GAsP/APD (HyD) for low light imaging. It has visible laser lines at 458nm, 488nm, 514nm, 561nm and 633nm ...

As [Zachary Tong] points out, confocal scanning microscopy uses a clever optical setup to collect light from a single, well-defined point within a sample; rather than getting an image of all the ...

Inverted confocal microscope with two HyD detectors, one PMT detector, resonant scanner, and full environmental chamber. The system is equipped with a tunable dual wavelength picosecond light source ...

We’ll discuss how combining confocal microscopy with light scattering spectroscopy offers a novel, noninvasive approach with key advantages over existing methods. Bio: Lev T. Perelman is Mary Tolan ...

BrisSynBio has access to the confocal and light microscopy service provided by the Wolfson Bioimaging Facility in the Biomedical Sciences Building, and has helped fund the expansion of this centre and ...
