Lens-free fluorescent microscope FlatScope may be the world's tiniest, lightest microscope for biological applications and beyond Date: March 5, 2018 ...

Cell Phones Turned Into Fluorescent Microscopes Date: July 22, 2009 Source: University of California - Berkeley Summary: Researchers have developed a cell phone microscope that not only takes ...

Fluorescence has become the most important contrasting method in light microscopy in recent years, largely thanks to the growing family of fluorescence proteins used for in vivo labelling.

Beyond corals, the tool has widespread potential for studying other small-scale marine organisms that photosynthesize, such ...

A fluorescent microscope uses fluorescent dyes to increase the contrast of the sample, allowing pathologists to identify particular objects, such as the TB bacillus, with less ambiguity.

Bacteriophages, or phages, viruses that selectively target and infect bacteria, have drawn growing attention for their potential use in a host of biotechnological processes to benefit humankind, from ...

In light sheet–based fluorescence microscopy (LSFM), optical sectioning in the excitation process minimizes fluorophore bleaching and phototoxic effects. Because biological specimens survive ...

Imagine you're a PhD student with a fluorescent microscope and a sample of live bacteria. What's the best way use these resources to obtain detailed observations of bacterial division from the sample?

"Fluorescence microscopy requires more equipment - such as filters and special lighting - than a standard light microscope, which makes them more expensive," said Fletcher.

A device that can convert a smartphone or tablet into a fluorescence microscope for less than US $50 is presented in a proof-of-principle study in Scientific Reports. The authors suggest that the ...
