Stanford researchers have combined two microscopy techniques to create a one-of-a-kind instrument that can show cell ...

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 ...

With a so-called cryo plasma-FIB (Plasma Focused Ion Beam) scanning electron microscope with nanomanipulator, Goethe University in Frankfurt (Germany) is expanding its research infrastructure with a ...

Sensome, the pioneer of microsensing technology for real-time, in situ tissue analysis, today announced the publication of a study in Science Advances unveiling an innovative methodology using its ...

The brain relies on real-time delivery of oxygen and nutrients through its microvasculature, which threads through neural ...

Fluorescence microscopy reveals cellular morphology and dynamics in remarkable detail, but achieving clear visualization at fast acquisition rates remains a challenge. A fundamental trade-off between ...

Physically magnifying objects using a key moisture-absorbing ingredient in diapers has opened an unprecedented view of the microbial world. When you slip a slide under a microscope, a system of glass ...

If you want to see cells in detail under a microscope, you probably think you need more powerful and expensive equipment. 'Expansion Microscopy' overturns that notion. By using absorbent materials ...

Imaging-based single-cell physiological profiling holds great potential for uncovering fundamental bacterial cold shock response (CSR) mechanisms, but its application is impeded by severe focus drift ...

Instead of relying on lenses to zoom in, expansion microscopy physically enlarges biological tissues by embedding them in a hydrogel, a water-absorbing polymer that can expand without losing its shape ...
