  • Active Illumination Microscopy for Live Cell Imaging

    by IDEX Health & Science

    Active illumination microscopy is a simple and straightforward means by which to effectively control and manage the effects of photobleaching and phototoxicity in fluorescence microscopy. Through precise control of the illumination power, it is possible to eliminate image saturation while enhancing detection sensitivity at low signal levels. Because AIM requires only simple, straightforward electronics and only one detection channel, it can easily be employed as a simple “drop in” addition to any standard one- or two-photon laser scanning fluorescence microscope platform. Because of this, AIM should provide microscopists with another powerful method to enhance their imaging tool kit.

  • Achieving the Best Alignment for Fluorescent Images

    by IDX Health & Science

    New filter technology can eliminate pixel shift in multicolor fluorescence imaging. Achieving excellent image registration can be even more critical in fluorescence microscopy because poor registration is not merely distracting but also can inhibit the determination of how molecules interact or how a cell functions.
