Leica Microsystems is the first company in the US receiving FDA 510(k) clearance for the visualization of cerebrovascular blood flow in conjunction with fluorescein. Leica Microsystems is proud to be ...

The 508 PV™ microscope spectrophotometer is for taking spectra and images of microscopic samples by UV-visible-NIR absorbance, reflectance, polarization and fluorescence. The innovative 508 PV™ is ...

Fluorescence is a phenomenon in which illuminated materials emit light of a different wavelength to the incident light. Fluorescence microscopes create an image from the distribution of this emitted ...

Engineers have developed a microscope that is capable of live imaging at double the resolution of fluorescence microscopy using structured illumination. A crucial tool in the evolution of scientific ...

This video shows how the Carl Zeiss light sheet fluorescence microscope system images the heart of a 2-day old zebrafish over long periods of time, providing maximum frame rates with reduced light ...

A device that can convert a smartphone or tablet into a fluorescence microscope for less than US $50 is presented in a proof-of-principle study in Scientific Reports. The authors suggest that the ...

Advancing our understanding of the human brain will require new insights into how neural circuitry works in mammals, including laboratory mice. These investigations require monitoring brain activity ...

Conventional light microscopy has been instrumental for the study of cells and microorganisms; fluorescence microscopy has enabled visualization of even smaller cell features by selectively adding ...

A new microscopy tool gives neuroscientists a never-before-seen view into the cellular networks underlying behavior. A model of the miniature fluorescent microscope (miniscope). Source: miniscope.org ...

Ever since a Dutch businessman peered into the microscopic world through his brass and glass contraption in the 1600s, microscopy has had a long, rich history of DIY innovation. This DIY fluorescence ...

Researchers have combined two microscopic imaging techniques in one microscope, providing scientists with a high-resolution method of tracking single molecules in a cellular context. The development ...
