A mechanosensitive fluorescent probe visualises and quantifies the mechanical stress on bacterial membranes upon contact with a surface. (Nanowerk News) In natural environments, bacteria rarely live ...

In this interview, Claudia Florindo talks about what matters when comparing benchtop fluorescence microscopes. What prompted Oxford Instruments to produce this buyer's guide, and what gaps or ...

Understanding how living cells grow, respond to stimuli, and change over time is central to modern cell biology and drug discovery. Many traditional imaging approaches rely on fluorescent labels, ...

In a recent article published in Nature Communications, researchers introduced NanoPlex, a novel strategy designed to overcome limitations in fluorescence microscopy by utilizing engineered secondary ...

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 ...

Imagine tuning into a football game, but all of the players are invisible except for the two quarterbacks. Without being able to see the orchestrated movements of the full teams, this would be a very ...

Obtaining high-resolution images in the world of microscopy has long been a challenge. Deconvolution, a method to enhance image clarity, often amplifies noise between the sample and the image.

The Center for Advanced Microscopy and Imaging (CAMI) is an all-university research, teaching, and service facility located in Upham Hall on Miami University's main campus, in Oxford, Ohio. CAMI ...

With the rapid revolution in super-resolution microscopy, the resolution of far-field optical microscopy has entered the sub-nanometer era, providing new insights into macromolecules in vitro and in ...

In a study published in Science Advances, a research team led by Prof. Liu Chengbo from the Shenzhen Institutes of Advanced Technology (SIAT) of the Chinese Academy of Sciences developed a 1.7-gram ...
