Multiwavelength TIRFM often uses an objective-based setup in which TIR is generated by focusing the excitation lasers through a high numerical aperture (NA; >1.4) microscope objective (MO; ref. 9). As ...

Stereo microscopes offer high-quality 3D imaging for various applications. This guide helps you select the ideal microscope based on your specific requirements.

Researchers at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) have developed a new dark-field imaging technique that does not require specialized microscope ...

My first microscope came in a small wooden box about one-third the size of a standard shoe box (not Frye boot size!) that neatly housed the microscope and five surgical tools: two scalpels, one pair ...

Engineers have developed a small, mirrored chip that helps to produce dark-field images, without dedicated expensive components. The chip is slightly larger than a postage stamp and as thin as a ...

A team of scientists has made a substantial breakthrough in the search for disease-causing mutations with a very cheap DNA microscope. To expand our efforts to find genetic mutations that eventually ...
