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 ...

For centuries, biological imaging has relied on dyes and fluorescent labels to visualize cellular structures -- a practice that not only alters samples but can delay critical medical decisions.

Staining is one of the most important steps in the preparation of biological microscope slides. First destroy the selective permeability of the cell membrane, and then use the dye to immerse the ...

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 ...

The modern microscope is an incredibly powerful tool when it comes to detecting disease, but typically the biological material being studied needs to be stained or dyed to reveal its secrets. This can ...

An Imperial-developed tiny microscope that can be steered through small bodily spaces during surgery has entered its next phase of laboratory trials. The endo-microscope—a microscope designed to be ...
