Researchers have proven that espresso is a favourable alternative to the highly toxic and radioactive uranyl acetate in the analysis of biological samples. (Nanowerk News) To ensure that the tissue ...

FPM-vH&E and WSI-cH&E results are similar, with the same tissue structure and large-scale features (including crypts and variations in cell number and density) apparent in both image datasets. A new ...

Researchers have identified a common household beverage as an effective, non-toxic substitute for the hazardous chemicals traditionally used in high-resolution microscopic imaging. A new study ...

To ensure that the tissue structures of biological samples are easily recognisable under the electron microscope, they are treated with a staining agent. The standard staining agent for this is ...

The use of fluorescent markers/stains to examine cells has become very popular. Fluorescent stains have many advantages over traditional staining dyes. Fluorescent stains do not limit the analysis of ...

Sensing: point-of-care sensors, mobile-phone enabled sensors, field-based sensing and measurement systems with applications in mobile health and telemedicine, environmental monitoring (for example, ...

Experts in optical physics have developed a new way to see inside living cells in greater detail using existing microscopy technology and without needing to add stains or fluorescent dyes. Experts in ...
