2. 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 ...

3. Micrograph - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Micrograph

   This is opposed to a macrograph or photomacrograph, an image which is also taken on a microscope but is only slightly magnified, usually less than 10 times. Micrography is the practice or art of using microscopes to make photographs. A photographic micrograph is a photomicrograph, and one taken with an electron microscope is an electron micrograph.

4. Microscopic scale - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Microscopic_scale

   The microscopic scale (from Ancient Greek μικρός (mikrós) 'small' and σκοπέω (skopéō) 'to look (at); examine, inspect') is the scale of objects and events smaller than those that can easily be seen by the naked eye, requiring a lens or microscope to see them clearly. [1]

5. Optical sectioning - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Optical_sectioning

   With no modification to the microscope, i.e. with a simple wide field light microscope, the quality of optical sectioning is governed by the same physics as the depth of field effect in photography. For a high numerical aperture lens, equivalent to a wide aperture, the depth of field is small (shallow focus) and gives good optical sectioning.

6. 4Pi microscope - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/4Pi_Microscope

   A 4Pi microscope is a laser scanning fluorescence microscope with an improved axial resolution. With it the typical range of the axial resolution of 500–700 nm can be improved to 100–150 nm, which corresponds to an almost spherical focal spot with 5–7 times less volume than that of standard confocal microscopy .

7. Live-cell imaging - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Live-cell_imaging

   A live-cell microscope. Live-cell microscopes are generally inverted. To keep cells alive during observation, the microscopes are commonly enclosed in a micro cell incubator (the transparent box). Live-cell imaging is the study of living cells using time-lapse microscopy.

   (Reuters) -Global trading house Cargill said on Tuesday it plans to cut around 5% of its staff, or about 8,000 jobs after revenue slumped in its most recent fiscal year as crop prices hit multi ...

9. Macroscope (science concept) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Macroscope_(science_concept)

   In science, the concept of a macroscope is the antithesis of the microscope, namely a method, technique or system appropriate to the study of very large objects or very complex processes, for example the Earth and its contents, [1] [2] or conceptually, the Universe. Obviously, a single system or instrument does not presently exist that could ...
