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 ...

FPM-vH&E and WSI-cH&E results are similar, with the same tissue structure and large-scale features (including crypts and variations in cell number and density) apparent in both image datasets. A new ...

A team of researchers at the University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA) has introduced a virtual Gram staining technique that could transform how microbiologists stain and classify bacteria. This ...

This seminar provides an overview of fluorescence microscopy in cancer research and other cell-based applications in the biosciences discovery workflow. In comparison with phase contrast and ...

Immunohistochemistry uses antibodies to test tissue samples for specific types of antigens. It can often provide very specific results regarding cancer types or other diseases, helping doctors decide ...

Microscopes have been fine-tuned to image cells in granular detail, with the most sophisticated instruments capable of resolving individual atoms within a protein. The expense of microscopes creates ...

Researchers have proven that espresso is a favourable alternative to the highly toxic and radioactive uranyl acetate in the analysis of biological samples. (Nanowerk News) To ensure that the tissue ...
