Microscopy

Suitable for a variety of applications in biology and biomedical research, fluorescence lifetime imaging (FLIM) is a powerful new tool for advanced quantitative analysis. Its high contrast and sensitivity allow for the detection of signals at the single molecule level. After an overview of basic pri..

Documenting the exponential growth in cryo-electron microscopy, the resulting advances, new hypotheses, and heightened understanding of the ultrastructure of living and inert matter, this book employes an accessible, step-by-step format to present the most sophisticated methods used in research labo..

In Situ hybridization allows the visualization of specific DNA/RNA sequences in individual cells in tissue sections, single cells, or chromosome preparations, and is an especially important method for studying DNA and RNA in heterogeneous cell populations. This book delves into in situ hybridization..

This book describes energy loss magnetic chiral dichroism (EMCD), a phenomenon in energy loss spectroscopy discovered in 2006. EMCD is the equivalent of XMCD but is based on fast probe electrons in the electron microscope. A spatial resolution of 2 nm has been demonstrated, and the lattice-resolved ..
