TESCAN S8000G FIB-SEM

27 July, 2017

The TESCAN S8000G is a next-generation FIB-SEM. The product delivers good image quality with high contrast, making it suitable for characterising biomaterials and nanostructures.


ASI Light Sheet Microscope

01 July, 2017

The Dual Inverted Selective Plane Illumination Microscopy (diSPIM) system utilises two water emersion objectives mounted at 45° angles above the sample on an inverted microscope. A third objective can also be used to view the sample from below.


Rescan Confocal Microscope

01 June, 2017

The Rescan Confocal Microscope from SANE Asia includes two scanning-mirror sets: the scanner and the re-scanner. While the scanner scans the specimen, the re-scanner writes the emission signal on the camera chip.

Frontier Microscopy has developed an automated microscopy analysis system for the asbestos air monitoring industry.


Switching oxygen molecules on and off

15 March, 2017

It is now possible to selectively switch individual oxygen molecules 'off' and 'on', from a non-reactive to a reactive state, using a special force microscope.


Oxford Nanoimaging (ONI) Nanoimager super-resolution fluorescence microscope

09 March, 2017

Oxford Nanoimaging (ONI) has released the Nanoimager, a super-resolution fluorescence microscope capable of single-molecule imaging.


Better in 3D: nanomachines observed in living cells

03 March, 2017

Through a combination of genetic engineering, super-resolution microscopy and biocomputation, European researchers have been able to observe protein nanomachines in living cells in 3D.


Phenom World Eucentric Sample Holder for sample rotation and tilting

01 March, 2017

The Eucentric Sample Holder, from Phenom World, allows users to quickly and safely tilt and rotate samples while imaging on a desktop SEM.


The microscope inspired by a barcode scanner

01 March, 2017

Engineers at the Australian National University have built a microscope that can film moving blood cells and neurons in living animals.
