Monitor cell culture and measure confluency consistently with Mateo TL This article describes how cell confluency can be measured in a consistent manner. For life science research fields, such as cancer biology, stem cell, or regenerative medicine, studies often require cells in specific ...
To investigate, Megason, Tsai, and colleagues developed a method to measure the force by which cells adhere to one another. They placed two individual cells together and then pulled on each cell with precisely controlled suction pressure from two micropipettes. This allowed the researche...
You can see just how rough it is if you peer at it under a microscope. When light hits paper, the waves are reflected in all directions. This is what makes paper so incredibly useful -- you can read the words on a printed page regardless of the angle at which your eyes view the ...

In this application note we describe how to stain cells for dynamic cell culture in a perfusion chamber with different microfluidic setups.
The Field of View on a microscope determines the size of the imaged area. It gains importance when you want to measure specifics such as densities -for example, an experiment to estimate the density of cells in a solution. To get the answer, you have to acquire an image of a Field of...
Ever since scientists discovered cells under the microscope more than 350 years ago, they have noted that each type of cell has a characteristic size. From tiny bacteria to inches-long neurons, size matters for how cells work. The question of how these building blocks of life regulate their ...
Because the resulting two daughter cells are genetically identical to the "mother cell" that they came from, this method of reproduction isn't exactly the best way to create a diverse gene pool. So how do bacteria get new genes? It turns out bacteria employ tricks to get the job done, ...
Pretrained neural network models for biological segmentation can provide good out-of-the-box results for many image types. However, such models do not allow users to adapt the segmentation style to their specific needs and can perform suboptimally for te
