A new microscopy method enables researchers to visualize the activity of the enzymes caspase-3 and alkaline phosphatase in various biological samples (Nat. Methods 2024, DOI: ...

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

Researchers have reported a sample-prior-based approach to point spread function decoupling that improves system ...

Researchers at Istituto Italiano di Tecnologia (IIT-Italian Institute of Technology) have developed an innovative microscopy technique capable of improving the observation of living cells. The study, ...

Until today, skin, brain, and all tissues of the human body were difficult to observe in detail with an optical microscope, since the contrast in the image was hindered by the high density of their ...

Conventional fluorescence microscopy provides poor quantitative information of the sample because it only captures fluorescence intensity, which changes frequently and depends on external factors. Now ...

Rapid 3D image acquisition technique, without moving observation plane, developed by Tohoku and Osaka universities. Conceptual illustration of the “One-scan” microscopy method. A newly-proposed 3D ...

A new kind of microscope is giving scientists a way to watch life inside cells with a clarity that feels almost unfair.
