Simple MATLAB 2-photon scanning software for demo and teaching purposes. What is this? A 2-photon microscope is a laser-scanning microscope that builds up an image by sweeping a laser beam across a specimen in araster pattern. The laser excites fluorescent proteins which emit light of a diffe...
The thin, protective layer of cells that covers most of the outer surface of an animal body and lines the inner surface of many body parts. In vertebrate animals, the outer layer of the skin, called the epidermis, is composed of epithelium. The American Heritage® Student Science Dictionary...
into either of these two groups. An unusual cell type found in larval chitons bears both cilia and microvilli (Vöcking et al.2017). Photoreceptor cells can also be inconspicuous in appearance, lacking copious membrane elaborations, making them difficult to identify with an electron microscope. ...
The full plan that you want to use to build the entire microscope. A plan that is separated into five parts A, B, C, D and E, which is used if you want to follow the Explorer Kit. In case you want to do this, we suggest downloading theLEGO package folder, containing all the inf...
Simple adaptation of the non-stereoscopic microscope for stereoscopic viewing of small insect partsdoi:10.1111/j.1365-3032.1970.tb00701.xSYNOPSISAn account is given of how the standard microscope, with a single objective and binocular head, can be adapted for stereoscopic viewing of small mounted ...
(b) Left and middle panels: brightfield and fluorescence images of a live 2-cell stage embryo, with one cells microinjected with TMR-sgTelo RNPs. Images obtained with a Zeiss epi-fluorescence microscope. Right panel: maximum-intensity projection of a 20 µm z-stack of the injected cell ...
Apart from nucleoporin FG domains, many other intrinsically disordered proteins (IDPs) were found to phase separate44,45,46,47,48. The resulting biomolecular condensates, sometimes in the form of membrane-less organelles, are implicated in a wide range of biological functions and pathologies49,50...
In order to take better care of our cells we need to understand the different parts of a cell and their functions: Cell Membrane: This is the protective cover around each cell. It allows messages to come in and out of the cell. The cell membrane is impacted by our diet, particularly th...
Counterfeit or substandard medicines adversely affect the health of millions of people and cost an estimated $200 billion USD annually. Their burden is greatest in developing countries, where the World Health Organization estimates that one in ten medica
The intestine is divided into three parts: proximal intestine (PI), middle intestine (MI), and the distal part of the intestine (DI)10. The PI is also referred to as the intestinal bulb and is thought to have similar functions as the stomach, which zebrafish do not have. The MI is ...
