There is a clear difference between a snake's skin and moth's eyes. Scientists at Kiel University have developed a new technique that brings this so-called 'apples and oranges' to a common level. This unique approach has given way to an entirely new and comparative outlook on biological surfaces, and provides a better understanding of how these surfaces actually work.
An innovative tool developed by UC San Diego chemists enables researchers to visualize mixing processes or chemical reactions occurring in liquids at the nanoscale.
FEI have launched a new versatile and high-performance scanning electron microscope (SEM) called Apreo. The system offers high-resolution surface data with exceptional contrast, and has the required flexibility to fit in a variety of samples, conditions, and applications.
The latest electron microscopy techniques are capable of exploring chemical, physical, and structural properties of materials with spatial resolution, extending from atomic to macroscopic length scales, commercial applications, and impact throughout a wide range of disciplines in the life and the physical sciences.
Nanolive is planning to launch a new microscope, also know as the 3D Cell Explorer, on December 14. This new microscope will help to observe living cells in 3D. For the very first time, this invention will enable researchers to examine the inside of living cells without causing any damage to them. Preventing the cells from being stained, and eliminating the need to develop the sample far in advance. The invention will be displayed for the first time at the world’s biggest cellular biology conference in San Diego, U.S.
When life gives you lemons, make lemonade. At Oak Ridge National Laboratory and Uppsala University, researchers have done the scientific equivalent by using, rather than eliminating, flaws inherent to electron microscopy to create probes for performing novel atomic-level spectroscopy.
Single molecules can be observed in detail using special microscopes. However, these ultra-high resolution instruments require an image processing step to process the raw image data to obtain an image. A new open source software solution, capable of rapidly and efficiently processing such raw image data has been developed by the Members of the Biomolecular Photonics Group at Bielefeld University for an ultra-high resolution fluorescence microscope used for biophysical research.
Penn State researchers have developed an innovative technique to rotate cells, individual particles, or organisms by utilizing acoustic waves in a microfluidic device. This latest advancement will enable scientists to capture 3D images, simply using a cell phone.
Electrons are often knocked off when an atom is bombarded with a large amount of energy. This makes the atom chemically reactive, triggering higher destruction. This is the reason why radiation is considered to be hazardous, and why high-resolution imaging methods that utilize X-rays and energetic electron beams, can change or destroy the samples they investigate.
Researchers from Stanford University have developed a new technique that enables 3D imaging of tissues and cells under the skin in real time. This latest study has the potential to improve the diagnosis and treatment for blindness and certain forms of cancer.
