Zebrafish eyes have cone cells specialized to differentiate near-ultraviolet (V), blue (B), green (G) and red (R) wavelengths of light. Researchers visualized the regular, repeated patterns of cone ...

Researchers have developed a new type of microscope that stitches together video from 54 individual cameras and lenses. Whether recording high-speed, 3D, gigapixel movies of the behavior of dozens of ...

A microscopy image created by researchers at the Bethesda-based National Institutes of Health researchers is part of the “Life Magnified” stamp panel issued Monday by the United States Postal Service ...

Researchers developed a large-scale, dynamic imaging technique using mesoscopic oblique plane microscopy, which can capture 3D images of entire organisms and maintain cellular resolution. A new ...

A microscopy image created by National Institutes of Health (NIH) researchers appears on one of the 20 new Life Magnified stamps issued by the United States Postal Service (USPS). The NIH zebrafish ...

Bruker's Acquifer Imaging Machine (IM) is a fully automated widefield microscope with both brightfield and fluorescence imaging capabilities. It is best suited for high-content screening (HCS) and ...

Life begins with a single fertilized cell that gradually transforms into a multicellular organism. This process requires ...

Cells and tissues rely on the circulation of red blood cells (RBCs) for oxygen supply. Two-photon (2P) microscopy is a reference technique for measuring RBC microcirculation and blood oxygenation ...

One concern in the use of femtosecond lasers for imaging of cells and tissues is the risk of causing photodamage to the delicate living systems being examined, thanks to the heating effects of the ...

Despite swimming in different worlds, fish and humans are biologically much closer than one might think. Capitalizing on this kinship, researchers have now used zebrafish embryos to come up with a ...
