Advanced light microscopy techniques are giving scientists a new understanding of human biology and what goes wrong in ...

Pocket microscopes are a way to take a sense of adventure with you wherever you go. These tiny machines allow you to zoom in and see an object’s surface or even look at cells without the care ...

Increasingly powerful light microscopes followed, revealing cell organelles like the nucleus and energy-producing mitochondria. But by 1873, scientists realized there was a limit to the level of ...

Now, however, optics engineers and physicists have developed sophisticated tricks to overcome the diffraction limit of light microscopes, opening up a new world of detail. These "super-resolution ...

A 25-year-old electron microscope can make films of events lasting just trillionths of a second, thanks to a simple retrofit. Transmission electron microscopes (TEMs) are standard kit for imaging ...

When we think of microscopes, we often think of compound microscopes, which can be problematic for students. Their lenses are very close to the subject, so small mistakes can ruin them easily.

abberior Instruments markets the world's only light microscopes with molecular high resolution. The Göttingen-based company emerged in 2012 from the NanoBiophotonics department of Stefan Hell at the ...

Thermo Fisher Scientific (TMO) recently unveiled two new electron microscopes, Scios 3 and Talos 12, at the Microscopy & Microanalysis conference, reinforcing their advanced technology offerings ...

An additional layer of complexity comes with digital image acquisition in contemporary SEM microscopes. The final image pixel resolution influences the smallest features that can be resolved, this ...

Scientists have created wearable microscopes to enable unprecedented insight into the signaling patterns that occur within the spinal cords of mice. This technological advancement will help ...

Ordinary microscopes can see 8 times more minutely than known physical limits if miniature glass spheres are sprinkled onto samples, according to a new study. The cheapest and most common ...
