To ensure that the tissue structures of biological samples are easily recognizable under the electron microscope, they are ...

Researchers at TU Graz have proven that espresso is a favourable alternative to the highly toxic and radioactive uranyl acetate in the analysis of biological samples.

Fluorescence Microscopy allows specimens to be studied with high sensitivity and specificity through the use of light. It works on the principle that energy emitted by certain types of materials can ...

Flow cytometry is a single cell technology that utilizes lasers and fluorescence (in most cases) to study the gene expression profile and function of cells. The power of flow cytometry is its ability ...

Figure 1: Flowchart showing the overview of skeletal tissue processing and imaging protocol. We use 4% (wt/vol) paraformaldehyde (PFA) solution to achieve fixation of bone samples. For the long bones, ...

Microscopes have revolutionized the practice of science, especially in the fields of biology and medicine. Just a few hundred years ago, gaining the ability to study what was previously unobservable ...

Atomic force microscopy (AFM) is a very popular analysis tool for 3D surface topology visualization and other measurements on a wide range of materials at nanoscales ...
