A mouse’s heart beats roughly 600 times each minute. With every beat, blood pumping through vessels jiggles the brain and other organs. That motion doesn’t trouble the mouse, but it does pose a ...

A new microscope is capable of live imaging of biological processes in such detail that moving protein complexes are visible. In Nijmegen, the world's first microscope has been installed that is ...

How physically magnifying objects using a key ingredient in diapers has opened an unprecedented view of the microbial world.

By combining two fundamentally different microscopy techniques, researchers can now measure the optical properties of a ...

Biophysicists have developed control software that optimizes how fluorescence microscopes collect data on living samples. Their control loop, used to image mitochondrial and bacterial sites of ...

In many communities around the world, students’ ability and enthusiasm to pursue STEM fields in their high school and college careers is limited by a lack of resources which prevent them from ...

Designed for operational ease, the CX23 microscope’s unique features accommodates the student and every requirement in the educational setting. This cost-effective system provides easy and safe ...

The microscope employs Plan Achromat objectives, which provide clear images with high image flatness over a wide field of view. This helps users view specimens clearly and evenly illuminated during ...

The Olympus FluoView FV1000 Confocal Microscope is a laser scanning biological microscope. It minimizes specimen damage during high-speed imaging of living organisms. It accurately captures a full ...

Biology students at Dakota Wesleyan University have new technology to use when in the lab. Dr. Tim Mullican, professor of biology, says two recently purchased Richter microscopes with cameras will ...

The light microscope was first developed and famously used in the late 1600s by the Dutch naturalist, Antonie van Leeuwenhoek, to look at small pond creatures he called "animalcules." Observations ...
