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 ...

Add Yahoo as a preferred source to see more of our stories on Google. Composite of three mages from new microscope technology show a cell's replication machinery in green, already-replicated DNA is ...

A classical way to image nanoscale structures in cells is with high-powered, expensive super-resolution microscopes. As an alternative, MIT researchers have developed a single-step technique for ...

Engineers have devised a way to induce cells to inscribe the history of cellular events in a long protein structure that can be imaged using a light microscope. As cells perform their everyday ...

The new microscope is a so-called multifocus microscope, which provides completely clear images, sorted into different layers, where you can study the cells from all angles. "It's a big deal. The fact ...

A team of scientists has developed a new characterization tool that allowed the scientists to gain unique insight into a possible alternative material for solar cells. A team of scientists from the ...

Using a tiny, spherical glass lens sandwiched between two brass plates, the 17th-century Dutch microscopist Antonie van Leeuwenhoek was the first to officially describe red blood cells and sperm cells ...
