A Guide to Fluorescence Microscopy

Fluorescence microscopy uses the ability of fluorophores, dyes, or fluorescent proteins to emit light of a specific wavelength after being excited with light of a shorter wavelength. Biomolecules can…
Virally labeled neurons (red) and astrocytes (green) in a cortical spheroid derived from human induced pluripotent stem cells. THUNDER Model Organism Imager with a 2x, 0.15 NA objective at 3.4x zoom was used to produce this 425 µm Z-stack (26 positions) which is presented here as an Extended Depth of Field (EDoF) projection.

Guide to Live-Cell Imaging

For a wide range of applications in various research fields of life science, live-cell imaging is an indispensable tool for visualizing cells in a state as close to in vivo, i.e. living and active, as…
Shown is the DMi8 inverted microscope which is used for life-science research.

Factors to Consider When Selecting a Research Microscope

An optical microscope is often one of the central devices in a life-science research lab. It can be used for various applications which shed light on many scientific questions. Thereby the…
Image of roundworm C. elegans acquired with a M205 FA fluorescence automated stereo microscope in combination with Rottermann contrast. Areas labelled with mCherry are seen as reddish purple.

A Guide to C. elegans Research – Working with Nematodes

Efficient microscopy techniques for C. elegans research are outlined in this guide. As a widely used model organism with about 70% gene homology to humans, the nematode Caenorhabditis elegans (also…

A Novel Laser-Based Method for Studying Optic Nerve Regeneration

Optic nerve regeneration is a major challenge in neurobiology due to the limited self-repair capacity of the mammalian central nervous system (CNS) and the inconsistency of traditional injury models.…
