Knowing the exact number of molecules located at specific junctures in cells can be a critical measure of health as well as disease. For example, abnormally high numbers of growth factor receptors on ...

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 ...

The polarized diSPIM microscope, which can image full 3D orientation and position of molecules in cells. The instrument was constructed in the Hari Shroff lab at the National Institute of Biomedical ...

A hybrid microscope allows scientists to simultaneously image the full 3D orientation and position of an ensemble of molecules, such as labeled proteins inside cells. The microscope combines polarized ...

Researchers at Helmholtz Munich and the Technical University of Munich have developed a new microscope that significantly improves how bioluminescent signals in living cells can be observed. The ...

A new hybrid microscope for the first time allows scientists to simultaneously image the full 3D orientation and position of an ensemble of molecules, such as labeled proteins inside cells. (Nanowerk ...

A microscope’s job is to magnify the minuscule world around us. We can observe the tiniest objects, organisms and materials, and investigate their form, texture and composition, to witness what would ...
