The best light microscope can show details that are 0.2µm apart and need a magnification of roughly x1500 so that our eyes can see it - this allows us to see larger cell structures. Electron ...

The tissues of the MH7 fossil were so precisely preserved that researchers could study individual skin cells. In some samples ...

Plant cells crammed with chloroplasts ... This is a leaf surface under a scanning electron microscope. Both types of electron microscopes make black-and-white images, but these have been ...

What do cells do when they are “hungry ... In 2004, fifty years after Novikoff and de Duve observed lysosomes under the electron microscope, Noboru Mizushima and colleagues at the Tokyo ...

Under the direction of Professor ... The structure was obtained using cryogenic electron microscopy, and the intricate interactions within the cells were examined using mass spectrometry.

However, it requires fluorescent staining, which poses risks of photobleaching and phototoxicity, potentially damaging the cells under study. Conversely, mid-infrared photoacoustic microscopy (MIR ...

The existing microscopes which have the capacity to examine tiny items – electron microscopes – can only see the surface of a cell rather than examining ... optical microscope can go by direct imaging ...
