In this way, and almost by chance, researchers at TU Wien developed a novel microscopy technique that allows the refractive index of biological samples to be measured at a resolution far below what ...

Cryo-electron microscopy (cryo-EM) can help scientists determine the three-dimensional structure of proteins in unprecedented detail. Jacques Dubochet, former group leader at EMBL, shared the 2017 ...

Smartphone microscopes can be useful tools for a broad range of imaging applications. This manuscript demonstrates the first practical implementation of Microscopy with Ultraviolet Surface Excitation ...

With its accuracy and agility, the Thermo Scientific™ Nicolet™ RaptIR+™ FTIR Microscope expedites sample analysis by producing actionable data rapidly. It can be time-consuming and challenging to hone ...

Nearly 100 years ago, a seemingly simple discovery revolutionized the microscope. The introduction of phase contrast, which garnered a Nobel Prize in 1953, brought into clear view structures inside ...

Stretching protein samples in all directions pulls molecules farther apart, allowing them to be visualized using only light ...

The INFINITY8-20C camera, which has an extremely high resolution and a wide field of view, is designed for quick sample focusing to capture every detail even at low magnification. The INFINITY8-20C ...

When using a measurement microscope, users can measure the size and dimensions of sample features in both two and three dimensions, which is important for inspection, quality control (QC), failure ...

A completely new type of microscope can take 3D images of cells -- while working in a natural environment. The new technology is significantly faster and better than before and will give researchers ...

Laser-driven thermoviscous flows provide contact-free rotation, transport or stabilization of delicate samples such as ...

Electron microscopy is a powerful technique that provides high-resolution images by focusing a beam of electrons to reveal fine structural details in biological and material specimens. 2 Because ...
