Fluorescence Microscopes News Today

Although transmitted light microscopy techniques, including differential interference contrast (DIC), phase contrast, and polarized microscopy, have improved the visualization of living specimens by enhancing their intrinsic contrast, live imaging using fluorescence microscopy has allowed life science enthusiasts to visualize subcellular structures at higher resolution.

In an article published in Scientific Reports, researchers present a lightweight one-photon microscope capable of imaging at different focal depths.
