In life sciences, confocal fluorescence microscopy (CFM) is widely regarded for producing high-resolution cellular images. However, it requires fluorescent staining, which poses risks of ...

Super-resolution optical microscopies have fundamentally changed the imaging landscape, providing life scientists with a suite of new research tools. However, such techniques can be difficult to ...

A statement attributed to Roger Tsien of the University of California, San Diego, gave the mistaken impression that there is no commercially available laser-based confocal system today capable of ...

Biologists are very interested in how proteins, lipids and other compounds are organized and interact in systems. Very few organizational details can be gained by using standard transmission-based ...

The development of organic light-emitting diode (OLED) visual display technologies harnesses the properties of two key techniques: photoluminescence and electroluminescence. Confocal microscopy can be ...

Both images show individual red blood cells. The one on the right, produced by STED, more clearly shows the Piezo1 proteins (in green), which are a mechanical calcium channel and play a crucial role ...
