Fluorescence microscopy has undergone a renaissance in the last decade. The introduction of green fluorescent protein (GFP) and two-photon microscopy has allowed systematic imaging studies of ...

Example of super-resolution microscopy: The image shows how the Discrete Molecular Imaging (DMI) technology visualizes densely packed individual targets that are just 5 nanometer apart from each other ...

“Expansion microscopy gives you opportunities that ... “There’s a lot of room to do really cool stuff.” ...

But it's possible to see things much smaller than that if we use magnification. There's three types of microscope: light, like this one here, and two types of electron microscopes, like those ones ...

[Birdbrain] is trying to make their own microfluidic devices. To aid in this quest, they need a quality microscope to see what they’re doing. Instead of buying one outright, they purchased a ...

Stimulated Emission Depletion (STED) microscopy is a super-resolution imaging technique that overcomes the diffraction limit of conventional optical microscopy. It enables the visualization of ...

The best light microscope can show details that are 0.2µm apart and need a magnification of roughly x1500 so that our eyes can see it - this allows us to see larger cell structures. Electron ...

This 3D-printed confocal laser scanning microscope is a good example of an instrument for measuring really small stuff. As [Zachary Tong] points out, confocal scanning microscopy uses a clever ...
