In partnership with the Journal of Visualized Experiments (JoVE), Leica Microsystems is proud to offer science labs in North America the opportunity to publish a unique method or technique, which includes microscope-based imaging
When applying fluorescence microscopy in biological applications, a lamp housing with mercury burner is the most common light source. This video tutorial shows how to change the bulb of a traditional fluorescence lamp housing.
The traditional light source for fluorescence excitation is a fluorescence lamp housing with mercury burner. A prerequisite for achieving bright and homogeneous excitation is the correct centering and alignment of the bulb inside the housing.
This video tutorial presents an easy-to-copy way to align the mercury bulb in a fluorescence lamp housing.
This video tutorial presents a reliable way to produce samples for super-resolution GSD imaging with a special focus on the mounting step. Stable and flat mounting of the coverslip increases the performance of the overall system, leading to an improved resolution of the GSD image.
Here we present an collection of videos telling the story of the invention of nanometer-scale microscopy by Stefan Hell and explaining the basic principle of STED microscopy.
