Confocal microscopy is a specialized fluorescence imaging technique that scientists use to acquire images at greater resolution than conventional microscopy. 1 In addition to scanning the lateral x ...

Confocal technology is one of the most important advances in optical microscopy, and many disciplines within Texas A&M AgriLife and other parts of The Texas A&M University System are discovering it ...

Proper regulation of airway surface layer (ASL) is essential for effective mucociliary clearance (MCC) in healthy airways. ASL depletion due to deficient cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance ...

The ocular surface is richly innervated with sensory nerves, particularly at the cornea which is a clear dome-like tissue forming the frontmost part of the eye. In-vivo corneal confocal microscopy is ...

A protein's function depends on its movement inside a cell and interactions with other proteins and biological structures. Biologists who want to watch proteins working in living cells frequently turn ...

In life sciences, confocal fluorescence microscopy (CFM) is widely regarded for producing high-resolution cellular images. However, it requires fluorescent staining, which poses risks of ...

There are obvious differences between cancerous cells and normal cells in morphology, chemical properties and mechanical properties. The detection of cytochemical and mechanical properties of tumor ...
