A "lensless" x-ray microscope that can take pictures of biological samples in their natural environment has been developed in the UK. Physicists used several overlapping diffraction patterns to create ...

Constructed with precision optical lenses, high-quality materials, a variety of illumination choices and a trinocular eyepiece tube, Celestron Labs has created a promising instrument for advanced ...

Which compound microscope is best? Anybody who is into science has probably thought about getting a microscope. But with so many different types available, it can be overwhelming to decide on the ...

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 ...

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 ...

In a sunny third-floor office at the Howard Hughes Medical Institute’s Janelia Research Campus in Ashburn, Virginia, Philipp Keller is showing off the optics for his latest microscope. They’re not ...

Researchers have developed a high-speed 3D imaging microscope that can capture detailed cell dynamics of an entire small whole organism at once. The ability to image 3D changes in real time over a ...

This might be the beginning of arterial calcifications. It is an elekron microscopy image of calcified material forming deposits. This is the first time it was possible to show a biological process ...
