IN this third edition the author (whom death has recently claimed) has revised the text and introduced much new matter, particularly in the chapters dealing with the design of the microscope, choice ...

Until today, skin, brain, and all tissues of the human body were difficult to observe in detail with an optical microscope, since the contrast in the image was hindered by the high density of their ...

Conventional fluorescence microscopy provides poor quantitative information of the sample because it only captures fluorescence intensity, which changes frequently and depends on external factors. Now ...

As the super-resolution microscopy industry evolves, experimental needs and demands change alongside it. More and more, demand for super-resolution microscopy on live samples has grown and caught the ...

A new microscopy method has allowed researchers to detect tiny changes in the atomic-level architecture of crystalline materials—like advanced steels for ship hulls and custom silicon for electronics.

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 ...

Zahra El-Schich (left) is a researcher at Malmö University, Sweden, where she received her PhD in Medical Science. Over the years El-Schich has been interested in the technology behind digital ...

A new variant of expansion microscopy that is tailored for brain pathology samples reveals cells and structures that can’t be seen with other methods. Expansion microscopy is a way of achieving the ...

SIMIP enables high-resolution images rich in both chemical and spatial information. A quantum cascade laser (QCL) excites molecular vibrations while a spatial light modulator (SLM) generates striped ...

Traditional fluorescence microscopy techniques collect only a small amount of the light emitted from a sample at any one time, so a route to improving their efficiency is to capture more of that light ...

How has cryogenic electron microscopy (cryo-EM) aided researchers during the COVID-19 pandemic? Applications of Camera Link HS (CLHS) outside the factory floor. Advances in imaging technology continue ...

ALTHOUGH nominally this is a second edition of Mr. Scales's “Elementary Microscopy,” published in 1905, yet it is in effect a new book. The first edition was not so pretentious, and did not attempt to ...
