Researchers have shown that consumer-grade 3D printers and low-cost materials can be used to produce multi-element optical ...

Researchers have incorporated a swept illumination source into an open-top light-sheet microscope to enable improved optical sectioning over a larger area of view. The advance makes the technique more ...

Top: Random Illumination Microscopy (RIM) utilizes random speckle patterns to achieve super-resolution imaging of biological tissues, improving resolution by a factor of two compared to the optical ...

Engineers at Duke University have developed a microscope that adapts its lighting angles, colors and patterns while teaching itself the optimal settings needed to complete a given diagnostic task. In ...

Microscopy continues to transform the life sciences. Here are five recent breakthroughs made possible by the technique.

Evident’s Rob Bellinger talks to AZoM about the MIX illumination - a powerful and unique imaging feature on Evident industrial microscopes. In this interview, Rob explains what it is and how it ...

Reviewed by Maryam Mahdi, B.Sc. Single Plane Illumination Microscopy (SPIM) is a non-invasive method of observing an organism and gaining as much biological data from the specimen as possible. The ...

Lattice light sheet microscopy is a newer light sheet microscopy technique that is primarily used in biological settings. It is a method that uses sheets of light in a lattice conformation to take ...

A new kind of microscope is giving scientists a way to watch life inside cells with a clarity that feels almost unfair.

Bulbs frequently need replacing, which can be a challenge when accessing the lamp housing of a large confocal system. Moreover, the alignment required after replacing a bulb each time is tricky. LEDs ...
