In a recent study published in Nature Communications, researchers developed a €350 smartphone-based microscope that can detect individual molecules. This brings super-resolution, research-grade ...

Hydrolysis is a chemical reaction that involves water molecules breaking down chemical bonds. One key type is electrolysis—using electricity to break water into oxygen and hydrogen gas. In this study, ...

Fluorescence light microscopy techniques offer several advantages when imaging biological samples, including high image contrast, good labeling specificity, multicolor, and three dimensional (3D) ...

Our bodies comprise different tissues and organs, which are composed of many cells that must adhere to form functional higher order structures. This adherence is facilitated by specialized proteins ...

A new hybrid microscope for the first time allows scientists to simultaneously image the full 3D orientation and position of an ensemble of molecules, such as labeled proteins inside cells. (Nanowerk ...

(Nanowerk News) Researchers at the University Medical Center Göttingen (UMG), Germany, have developed a new method that makes it possible for the first time to image the three-dimensional shape of ...

To unravel the complexities of biological phenomena, scientists have long relied on microscopy to visualize the intricate details of their specimens, including tissue architecture, cell morphology, ...

When single-molecule super-resolution microscopes were first commercialized some 15 years ago, they made headlines for their ability to resolve individual molecules and structures at the nanometer ...
