Confocal microscopy is a specialized fluorescence imaging technique that scientists use to acquire images at greater resolution than conventional microscopy. 1 In addition to scanning the lateral x ...

Biologists are very interested in how proteins, lipids and other compounds are organized and interact in systems. Very few organizational details can be gained by using standard transmission-based ...

Both images show individual red blood cells. The one on the right, produced by STED, more clearly shows the Piezo1 proteins (in green), which are a mechanical calcium channel and play a crucial role ...

Scientists use confocal microscopy to study intracellular organization, structures, and dynamics in 3D. Selecting a microscope platform for a research project can be challenging because different ...

Since the 1990s, Yokogawa has played a prominent role in the R&D of high-speed confocal microscopes for real-time imaging of living cells, and in 1996, launched its first product, the CSU10 confocal ...
