Confocal microscopy is a specialized fluorescence imaging technique that scientists use to acquire images at greater resolution than conventional microscopy. 1 In addition to scanning the lateral x ...

Confocal microscopy is a very popular imaging technique for high-quality imaging of biological samples, especially in thicker specimens. Confocal imaging enables the capture of high-contrast images, ...

In life sciences, confocal fluorescence microscopy (CFM) is widely regarded for producing high-resolution cellular images. However, it requires fluorescent staining, which poses risks of ...

Fluorescence is the process by which a photon is absorbed, and another of slightly lower energy, and therefore longer wavelength, is subsequently emitted. Under normal circumstances, the electrons of ...

The Department of Biology at Saint Louis University offers a Leica SP8 confocal microscope with resonant scanner for academic and commercial use. Live-cell imaging can be performed using a stage ...

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 ...

Confocal and widefield microscopy each offer unique benefits and many researchers often require access to both technologies. In this issue of Under the Microscope, Dr Maria Giubettini, Application ...

ROME--(BUSINESS WIRE)--CrestOptics S.p.A., a manufacturer of high-end microscopy solutions and advanced systems for fluorescence microscopy and diagnostic applications, today announced that its CICERO ...

Visualizing tissues and neurons inside an animal's skull has long been a challenge for biophotonics techniques, thanks to the skull's thickness and the complex structures inside. A team at the ...

We’ve all likely seen the amazing images possible with a scanning electron microscope. An SEM can yield remarkably detailed 3D images of the tiniest structures, and they can be invaluable tools for ...
