WASHINGTON--(BUSINESS WIRE)--To serve remote areas of the world, doctors, nurses and field workers need equipment that is portable, versatile, and relatively inexpensive. Now researchers at the ...

Since Galileo ground his own glass for the lenses of his occhiolino, scientists and doctors have relied on microscopes. And for those last 486 years, microscopes have remained too expensive, ...

A new dual-light microscope lets researchers observe micro- and nanoscale activity inside living cells without using dyes. The system captures both detailed structures and tiny moving particles at ...

WEST LAFAYETTE, Ind. – A new type of microscope may give doctors a better idea of how safely and effectively a medication will perform in the body. A Purdue University team developed the microscope ...

A new microscopy technique allows scientists to see single-atom-thick boron nitride by making it glow under infrared light.

Non-invasive microscopic techniques such as optical coherence microscopy and two-photon microscopy are commonly used for in vivo imaging of living tissues. When light passes through turbid materials ...

Australian researchers have demonstrated a quantum microscope that can break through a fundamental barrier faced by regular microscopes and see tiny structures that are normally invisible. The device ...

Device described in Biomedical Optics Express could be used for field diagnostics in developing countries, testing of water quality, food contamination. WASHINGTON, Aug. 30—To serve remote areas of ...

A new microscope could be used for drug testing and biological imaging. Researchers created a new type of microscope by adding just two small optics to the base design of a conventional microscope. A ...
