SPOT Idea Digital microscopy cameras
07 August, 2008The SPOT Idea Digital Cameras are high-performance, value-packed, low-cost digital imaging systems for researchers, pathologists, scientists and engineers.
32 megapixel CCD microscopy camera
06 July, 2008The Lumenera INFINITYX-32 offers flexibility in capturing images at 2, 8, 16 and 32 megapixel resolution. Using the DeltaVu technology, each CCD pixel captures full chromatic information, resulting in increased colour resolution with no degradation.
Digital inverted microscope
04 June, 2008The EVOS imaging system is a fully integrated inverted microscope, digital camera and LCD, which allows the user to view, capture and archive images easily and comfortably.
Stimulated emission depletion microscope
08 April, 2008The Leica TCS STED is a commercially available light microscope which enables the investigation of structural details below the 100 nm resolution range.
Optical sectioning in real time
06 December, 2007Conventional wide field fluorescent imaging is hindered by the detection of out of focus light above and below the specimen plane being examined. This has limited traditional fluorescent microscopes to a Z-direction resolution of approximately 1 µm. This limitation has spurred the adoption of the laser scanning microscope (LSM) into examination of subcellular biology with the capability of Z-resolutions below 0.5 µm.
Visually observing immune responses in living tissue
22 November, 2007The Centenary Institute, one of Australia ’s leading medical research institutes, has unveiled a microscope more powerful than any other in the country.
Clinical microscopes
05 October, 2007VanGuard Microscopes has released a series of clinical compound microscopes.
Analysing the microscope market
31 July, 2007The global market for microscopes and accessories will rise from around $2.1 billion in 2006 to $3.6 billion by 2012, according to a recent report published by BCC Research.
Stereo microscopes
07 February, 2007Olympus has released the SZX2 research stereo microscope system.
Microscope reveals changes over time
09 October, 2006 by David WelshA three-dimensional microscope that works in a new way is giving unprecedented insight into the internal structure and chemical composition of materials
Confocal microscopy
09 August, 2006Leica Microsystems has released a compact, high resolution spectral confocal system - the Leica TCS SPE - which features true spectral detection across the full emission range.
Electron microscopy specimen preparation
07 April, 2006The Auto 306 high vacuum coating system provides the electron microscopist with a high quality vacuum system capable of performing a wide range of different preparation techniques in a single vacuum chamber.
New look for optical microscopy
21 February, 2006Physicists in Switzerland and Germany have made a new type of optical microscope that can produce images without capturing light from the sample. The new device relies on measuring changes in the properties of a gold nanoparticle placed next to the sample. The nanoantenna could have application in sensing devices (Phys Rev Lett 95 200801).
Microscope allows the tracking of a functioning protein
08 February, 2006 by Mark ShwartzA Stanford University research team has designed the first microscope sensitive enough to track the real-time motion of a single protein down to the level of its individual atoms
Microscopes at microscopic size
10 April, 2005Traditionally if scientists wanted to look at something small they would put a sample under a microscope but now researchers have managed to shrink the microscope itself to the size of a single human cell.
