Then, using Time-gated STED Microscopy, the research team made still images at 60 nanometre resolution (about one thousandth of the width of a human hair), as well as time-lapse image sequences ...

Both images show individual red blood cells. The one on the right, produced by STED, more clearly shows the Piezo1 proteins (in green), which are a mechanical calcium channel and play a crucial role ...

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, ...

A new publication from Opto-Electronic Advances; DOI 10.29026/oea.2024.240035 discusses multiplexed stimulated emission depletion nanoscopy for multi-color live-cell long-term imaging. In the field of ...

Even those who maintain that super-resolution microscopy is a powerful tool of biological discovery have admitted that it may have a bit of an image problem. For example, in a recent review, several ...

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 ...

(Ivanhoe Newswire) -- A new tool allows scientists to see the immune system like never before. The device, a stimulated emission depletion (STED) microscope, provides sharp images at extremely small ...

Using a tiny, spherical glass lens sandwiched between two brass plates, the 17th-century Dutch microscopist Antonie van Leeuwenhoek was the first to officially describe red blood cells and sperm cells ...
