A noninvasive, polarized light microscope invented at the Marine Biological Laboratory played a crucial role in a recent breakthrough in embryonic stem-cell research aimed at developing medical ...

Slide 1 of 6, Investigating cells with a light microscope, Rotate Rotate the objective lenses so that the low power, eg x10, is in line with the stage. End of image gallery. Risks.

The microscope combines polarized fluorescence technology, a valuable tool for measuring the orientation of molecules, with a ...

Amazing video of cells in action 00:45. These striking images give a never-before-seen view of the inner workings of cells. They were created using a revolutionary new microscope developed over ...

“Essentially, we just ripped apart this $1.5-million sophisticated instrument to install this integrated light microscope, and now we have a much, much better system,” Dahlberg said.

The researchers tested their technology with a commercial inverted microscope. They were able to image fine features, such as actin filaments, in fluorescently labeled Cos-7 cells—features that ...

The light a lattice light-sheet microscope uses is also unusual. It uses a Bessel beam, which is a special kind of laser light that doesn’t diffract, or splinter. ( Learn more about that here .) ...

Cell Phones Turned Into Fluorescent Microscopes Date: July 22, 2009 Source: University of California - Berkeley Summary: Researchers have developed a cell phone microscope that not only takes ...

Thanks to the diffraction limit, scientists could use the light microscope to see cells but not the proteins inside them or a virus attacking them.
