As the super-resolution microscopy industry evolves, experimental needs and demands change alongside it. More and more, demand for super-resolution microscopy on live samples has grown and caught the ...

Researchers have demonstrated that consumer-grade 3D printers and inexpensive materials can produce advanced optical ...

Microscopy continues to transform the life sciences. Here are five recent breakthroughs made possible by the technique.

In this article, we look at some of the key developments of various microscopy techniques over the last few years and how they have benefitted different areas of research and development. The impact ...

Cells contain various specialized structures - such as the nucleus, mitochondria or peroxisomes - known as "organelles''. Tracing their genesis and determining their structure is fundamental to ...

One variation of electron microscopy is transmission electron microscopy (TEM). In a TEM experiment, the electron beam passes through the sample and the electrons are directly imaged onto an electron ...

The microscopic world of cells and bacteria is incredibly important to understand, but tricky to study in detail, especially without harming the subjects. Researchers at EPFL have now developed a new ...

Our lab uses a novel system for high-throughput screening of protein degradation in the cell. Instead of relying on the cumbersome method of radiolabeling, cycloheximide treatment, and Western ...

Our approach to super-resolution microscopy is fundamentally different from most existing techniques such as stimulated emission depletion microscopy, structured illumination microscopy, or ...

Scientists have built microscopic, light-powered robots that can think, swim, and operate independently at the scale of ...

Exosomes are small vesicles, ranging from 30-120 nanometers in diameter, secreted from cells throughout the human body. They are marked on their surface by proteins termed ‘tetraspanins’, aptly named ...
