It is important to set up microscopes for optimal viewing every time it is used. This video gives a brief overview of how to center a slide for viewing a specimen with a compound microscope.

Discover how different light sources, including LEDs, arc lamps, and lasers, impact optical microscopy techniques like ...

Multimodal biological electron microscopy involves studying the same material using multiple microscopy techniques. This approach is crucial as it allows us to gather diverse types of data from the ...

While SEM has significantly contributed to the world of microscopy, it is one among several forms of electron microscopy techniques, each offering unique capabilities. Techniques such as Transmission ...

Finding new microscopy techniques has traditionally relied on human experience, intuition and creativity—a challenging approach given the vast number of possible experimental optical configurations.

The new approach will benefit advanced microscopy techniques such as light sheet microscopy, in which a volumetric image of the sample is built up by imaging one plane at a time, or stimulated ...

Scanning Tunneling Microscopy is a subset of Scanning Probe Microscopy (SPM), a group of techniques that image and manipulate surfaces at the nanometer to atomic scales. SPM techniques share the ...

Figure 1: AFM techniques to characterize and manipulate biological systems on the nanometre scale. Molecular interactions make up the basic language of all biological processes. They determine how ...

The new technique can be combined with other microscopy techniques for detailed analysis of biological samples and is expected to contribute to a wide range of areas in the biological sciences ...
