is never used in transmission electron microscopy. This is because optical resolution is not sufficient: contrast is also needed. For simplicity, in the following explanation I will refer only to ...

"Light transmitted through an optical fiber is distorted as ... making them unsuitable for super-resolution or wide-field microscopy. "Performing advanced microscopy in a hair-thin fiber will ...

Current optical and electron microscopy imaging techniques are not suited for measuring the dynamic characteristics of living microorganisms at tiny scales due to complex sample preparation methods or ...

When selecting a microscope, it’s important to consider various features, such as the field of view, frame construction, lighting, optical quality and resolution. There are several types of ...

Light and electron microscopy have distinct limitations. Light microscopy makes it difficult to resolve smaller and smaller ...

Understanding how tumors change their metabolism to resist treatments is a growing focus in cancer research. As cancer cells adapt to therapies, their metabolism often shifts, which can help them ...
