The family of electron microscopy techniques have become staple methods for imaging nanoscale objects, including nanoparticles, viruses and proteins. The appeal of electron microscopy as a ...

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

In this interview, AZoM talks to Anna Walkiewicz, Application Specialist at Quorum Technologies, about the sample preparation technique glow discharge, how it can be used in Transmission Electron ...

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 ...

Responsive technique: Jonathan Peters using an electron microscope at Trinity College Dublin (Courtesy: Lewys Jones and Jonathan Peters/Trinity College Dublin) A new scanning transmission electron ...

Researchers have developed a new type of microscope that can acquire extremely large, high-resolution pictures of non-flat objects in a single snapshot. This innovation could speed up research and ...

In this interview, we talk to Alex de Marco, an Associate Professor at Monash University, about the correlative use of light and electron microscopy in the study of biological samples, as well as the ...

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.

The new type of microscope makes light travel in a circle. That way it can interact multiple times with the sample. Everyone who ever took a photo knows the problem: if you want a detailed image, you ...

Light-sheet fluorescence microscopy is a state-of-the art imaging technique for live-cell imaging. Unlike traditional imaging techniques such as laser scanning and spinning disk confocal microscopy ...
