In many academic research and medical settings, microscopy and imaging have transitioned from using traditional lamp illumination, such as mercury and Xenon lamphouses, to solid-state LED...

Results of a pilot study conducted at the University of Rochester showed that a system based on two-photon fluorescence microscopy (TPFM) enabled rapid diagnosis of nonmelanoma skin cancer through...

A genetically modified fluorescent protein has exhibited the shortest fluorescence emission wavelength to date, researchers at Osaka University reported. The fluorophore, named Sumire, emits 414-nm...

As the popularity of fluorescence-guided surgery grows, so does the demand to design and develop fluorophores, which serves to distinguish the target tissue from other tissues and subsequently guide...

Engineers face many unique challenges when creating polymerase chain reaction (PCR) instrumentation. These challenges are seen in both the qualitative detection of nucleic acid sequences, using...

Beginning with telecommunications needs, and more recently with modern home-diagnostics and biosensor applications, optical devices have been shrinking while their application space is expanding....

Immune cells, including T cells, have a range of functions depending on activation state and subtype. However, current methods to assess immune cell function use exogenous labels that are limiting...

Machine vision provides imaging-based automatic inspection and analysis for many modern industrial applications. This webinar will give you a general overview of machine vision system design...

A dichroic mirror, also known as a dichroic beamsplitter or interference filter beamsplitter, is an optical device that selectively reflects or transmits light based on its wavelength. Dichroic...

Photobleaching is a phenomenon in which the fluorescence of a fluorophore (a fluorescent molecule or dye) is permanently reduced or eliminated upon prolonged exposure to light. This process occurs...

STED microscopy, or stimulated emission depletion microscopy, is a superresolution imaging technique in fluorescence microscopy that surpasses the diffraction limit, enabling the visualization of...

Fluorescence is a type of luminescence, which is the emission of light by a substance that has absorbed light or other electromagnetic radiation. Specifically, fluorescence involves the absorption of...
