To ensure that the tissue structures of biological samples are easily recognizable under the electron microscope, they are ...

Researchers at TU Graz have proven that espresso is a favourable alternative to the highly toxic and radioactive uranyl acetate in the analysis of biological samples.

The researchers demonstrated the utility of their technique on a slice of a mouse brain, 200 microns (0.2 millimeters) in thickness. First, they made their tissue sample see-through using a tweaked ...

Researchers have identified a common household beverage as an effective, non-toxic substitute for the hazardous chemicals ...

To ensure that the tissue structures of biological samples are easily recognisable under the electron microscope, they are treated with a staining ...

Researchers have developed a new type of microscope that can acquire extremely large, high-resolution pictures of non-flat objects in a single snapshot. This innovation could speed up research and ...

The key to understanding the drivers of physical and neurological disease lies in part with understanding the microscopic ...

A classical way to image nanoscale structures in cells is with high-powered, expensive super-resolution microscopes. As an alternative, MIT researchers have developed a way to expand tissue before ...

Researchers at Graz University of Technology found that ordinary espresso can replace toxic uranyl acetate for electron ...
