Coherent Raman Scattering Microscopy Publication List
CRS (Coherent Raman Scattering) microscopy is an umbrella term for label-free methods that image biological structures by exploiting the characteristic, intrinsic vibrational contrast of their…
How Microscopy Helps the Study of Mechanoceptive and Synaptic Pathways
In this podcast, Dr Langenhan explains how microscopy helps his team to study mechanoceptive and synaptic pathways, their challenges, and how they overcome them.
What is the Patch-Clamp Technique?
This article gives an introduction to the patch-clamp technique and how it is used to study the physiology of ion channels for neuroscience and other life-science fields.
How to Determine Cell Confluency with a Digital Microscope
This article shows how to measure cell confluency in an easy and consistent way with Mateo TL, increasing confidence in downstream experiments.
How to do a Proper Cell Culture Quick Check
In order to successfully work with mammalian cell lines, they must be grown under controlled conditions and require their own specific growth medium. In addition, to guarantee consistency their growth…
Live-Cell Fluorescence Lifetime Multiplexing Using Organic Fluorophores
On-demand video: Imaging more subcellular targets by using fluorescence lifetime multiplexing combined with spectrally resolved detection.
Harnessing Microfluidics to Maintain Cell Health During Live-Cell Imaging
VIDEO ON DEMAND - In this episode of MicaCam, we will use microfluidics to explore the effect of shear stress on cell morphology, examine the effect of nutrient replenishment on cellular growth during…
How to Perform Dynamic Multicolor Time-Lapse Imaging
Live-cell imaging sheds light on diverse cellular events. As many of these events have fast dynamics, the microscope imaging system must be fast enough to record every detail. One major advantage of…
Following Multiple Events during Staurosporine Apoptosis
Coming next on MicaCam - Livestream on 19th October 2022 - In this episode of MicaCam, we show how adding additional markers to an apoptosis kit can markedly increase the amount of information a…
