Up to 40% of patients undergoing breast conserving surgery for breast cancer require repeat surgeries due to close to or positive margins. The lengthy processing required for evaluating surgical ...

To ensure that the tissue structures of biological samples are easily recognizable under the electron microscope, they are treated with a staining agent. The standard staining agent for this is uranyl ...

The techniques used in optical microscopy are important to ensure that a sample can be viewed as clearly as possible. This will provide information about its microscopic appearance. An optical ...

Left, a tissue sample dyed by traditional methods. Centre, a computed stain created from infrared–optical hybrid imaging. Right, tissue types identified with infrared data; the pink in this image ...

Researchers performing cryo-EM experiments can acquire the training to make their own cryo-EM and negative-stain grids, and collect and process their own high-resolution data. We also offer sample ...

Optical microscopy is a technique employed to closely view a sample through the magnification of a lens with visible light. This is the traditional form of microscopy, which was first invented before ...

The image shows a 6 mm long, 12.5 day old mouse embryo obtained with the Mesolens. The inset shows a blow-up of the eye region revealing the individual cell nuclei. It is possible to identify fine ...

Which compound microscope is best? Anybody who is into science has probably thought about getting a microscope. But with so many different types available, it can be overwhelming to decide on the ...
