3-Dimensional Imaging of Macroscopic Defects in Aluminum Alloys
The investigation of macroscale defects in aluminum (Al) alloys with a rapid 3-dimensional (3D) imaging approach is described in this report. Aluminum (Al) alloys play an important role in the…Read article
How to create EDOF (Extended Depth of Focus) images
Watch this video to see how you can rapidly record sharp optical microscope images of samples with a large height variation. This is done with the optional Extended Depth of Focus (EDOF) function of…Read article
How can PAULA help streamline the workflow for my wound healing assay?
The wound healing assay, often used as a synonym for scratch assay or migration assay, is an important tool for the evaluation and measurement of cell migration, whether single cells or cell…Read article
Webinar: Integrated Cryo-tomography Workflow
Analyzing purified protein structures in a cellular context is key to understanding how proteins and protein complexes function. Thermo Fisher Scientific and Leica Microsystems developed the…Read article
Confluency Check with PAULA Cell Imager
Many cell-based experiments require cells in a certain state. This can include their morphology, fluorescent protein expression, and the confluency of the cell layer. Researchers check their cells…Read article
Webinar: Live Cell Isolation by Laser Microdissection
Laser microdissection is a tool for the isolation of homogenous cell populations from their native niches in tissues to downstream molecular assays. Beside its routine use for fixed tissue sections,…Read article
See the Structure with Microscopy - Know the Composition with Laser Spectroscopy
The advantages of a 2-in-1 materials analysis solution combining optical microscopy and laser induced breakdown spectroscopy (LIBS) for simultaneous visual and chemical inspection are described in…Read article
Leica is MAD about LIBS
When analyzing material for cleanliness testing, users normally just want a simple way to know whether the particle under scrutiny is normal debris or something more risky. Users can now “LIBS” it to…Read article
