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 ...

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 ...

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 ...

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 ...

For centuries, scientists have used microscopes to magnify and peer into a world invisible to the naked eye. The earliest instruments were simple lens-filled tubes, the best of which revealed the ...

Our Electron Microscopy Facility, based in our labs in Chelsea, houses two ThermoFisher Scientific transmission electron microscopes (TEM) – a Tecnai F20 and a Glacios. It is open primarily to ...

Microscopy existed prior to flow cytometry and was an integral part of its development. A fluorescent microscope, in simple terms, is an enhanced light microscope which uses a light of higher ...
