In life sciences, confocal fluorescence microscopy (CFM) is widely regarded for producing high-resolution cellular images. However, it requires fluorescent staining, which poses risks of ...

Confocal microscopy image of human embryonic kidney cells. Nanoparticles filled with human immunoglobulin were delivered to the cells. The cell nucleus is blue, endosomes (which sequester materials ...

Confocal microscopy is a specialized fluorescence imaging technique that scientists use to acquire images at greater resolution than conventional microscopy. 1 In addition to scanning the lateral x ...

The Cell Imaging Center houses two types of confocal microscopes: the Olympus FV1000 and the Zeiss LSM700. In confocal microscopy, laser light is focused into a very small spot and is scanned across ...

The first major benefit of confocal microscopes is the level of detail which can be achieved. With an already impressive horizontal resolution of 0.2 microns and vertical resolution of 0.5 confocal ...

Super-resolution microscopy can come in different forms, but structured illumination microscopy (SIM) is one of the more common approaches. In this technique, grid projections are used to increase the ...
