Microscopi per campo scuro

Il metodo di contrasto in campo oscuro sfrutta la diffrazione o la dispersione della luce da strutture di un campione biologico o da caratteristiche non uniformi nella struttura di un materiale.

Contrasto di fase

Grazie al microscopio ottico a contrasto di fase è possibile visualizzare le strutture di molti tipi di campioni biologici con maggior contrasto senza la necessità di utilizzare le colorazioni.
