There are now various attachments that allow you to capture microscope-scale images with your smartphone. Unfortunately, however, the limitations of the phone's lens and image sensor mean that those ...

Researchers typically keep two microscopes in the lab — a traditional upright device for viewing dry slides and an inverted microscope to examine live samples. San Diego start-up Echo has created a ...

The science of small just got a lot bigger at Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory with the arrival of the world’s most powerful microscope. The new $27 million microscope has a resolution of half of ...

For the first time, labs around the world can 3D print their own precision microscopes, thanks to a new open-source design. For the first time, labs around the world can 3D print their own precision ...

There are many types of microscopy, each providing a unique set of benefits. Light microscopy of cells that express fluorescently labelled molecules, for example, lets scientists observe the movements ...

Germany’s Max Planck Society and the microscope maker Leica Microsystems have joined forces to commercialize a new technique to allow optical microscopes to look at even smaller objects than was ...

Kutztown University dedicated a new research laboratory Saturday at a ceremony in Boehm Science Center. The Fred and Martha Hafer Scanning Electron Microscope Laboratory advances the quality of ...

We’re willing to bet it’s been a minute since you prepared slides in a science lab. If your kid’s back-to-school list includes a microscope, you probably need a refresher before beginning your search.

The nanoscale X-ray imaging of biological samples could soon be routine in any lab thanks to a breakthrough by physicists in the US. The team has shown that lensless X-ray microscopes do not ...

In the market for a scientific microscope with a binocular eyepiece? How about a temperature-controlled, air-filtered incubator for storing biological samples? Or a refrigerated centrifuge that ...

For the first time, labs around the world can 3D print their own precision microscopes to analyse samples and detect diseases , thanks to an open-source design created at the University of Bath. The ...
