  2. Fluorescent tag - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fluorescent_tag

    S. cerevisiae septins revealed with fluorescent microscopy utilizing fluorescent labeling. In molecular biology and biotechnology, a fluorescent tag, also known as a fluorescent label or fluorescent probe, is a molecule that is attached chemically to aid in the detection of a biomolecule such as a protein, antibody, or amino acid.

  3. Microscope slide - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Microscope_slide

    A microscope slide is a thin flat piece of glass, typically 75 by 26 mm (3 by 1 inches) and about 1 mm thick, used to hold objects for examination under a microscope. Typically the object is mounted (secured) on the slide, and then both are inserted together in the microscope for viewing. This arrangement allows several slide-mounted objects to ...

  4. Microscopy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Microscopy

    Antonie van Leeuwenhoek (1632–1723). The field of microscopy (optical microscopy) dates back to at least the 17th-century.Earlier microscopes, single lens magnifying glasses with limited magnification, date at least as far back as the wide spread use of lenses in eyeglasses in the 13th century [2] but more advanced compound microscopes first appeared in Europe around 1620 [3] [4] The ...

  5. Isotopic labeling - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Isotopic_labeling

    A carbon-13 label was used to determine the mechanism in the 1,2- to 1,3-didehydrobenzene conversion of the phenyl substituted aryne precursor 1 to acenaphthylene. [3]An isotopic tracer, (also "isotopic marker" or "isotopic label"), is used in chemistry and biochemistry to help understand chemical reactions and interactions.

  6. Stereo microscope - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stereo_microscope

    The stereo, stereoscopic or dissecting microscope is an optical microscope variant designed for low magnification observation of a sample, typically using light reflected from the surface of an object rather than transmitted through it. The instrument uses two separate optical paths with two objectives and eyepieces to provide slightly ...

  7. Optical microscope - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Optical_microscope

    The optical microscope, also referred to as a light microscope, is a type of microscope that commonly uses visible light and a system of lenses to generate magnified images of small objects. Optical microscopes are the oldest design of microscope and were possibly invented in their present compound form in the 17th century.

  8. Immunogold labelling - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Immunogold_labelling

    Immunogold labeling or immunogold staining (IGS) is a staining technique used in electron microscopy. [2] This staining technique is an equivalent of the indirect immunofluorescence technique for visible light.

  9. Collodion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Collodion

    Collodion is a pure type of pyroxylin used to embed specimens which will be examined under a microscope. While in Paris, René Dagron became familiar with the collodion wet plate and collodion-albumen dry plate processes which he would later adapt to his microfilm and Stanhope production techniques.
