When we look at biological cells under a microscope, they're usually not very colorful. Normally, to visualize them we have to artificially add color—typically by staining. By doing so, we can see ...

Breast cancer is one the leading causes of cancer death among women globally. Upon breast cancer diagnosis, the testing of HER2—a protein that promotes cancer cell growth, is routinely carried out to ...

Diagnosis is often the first thing that comes to mind when considering microscopy's role in pathologists' daily routines. While microscopes are indeed essential at this stage of the pathology ...

FPM-vH&E and WSI-cH&E results are similar, with the same tissue structure and large-scale features (including crypts and variations in cell number and density) apparent in both image datasets. A new ...

To ensure that the tissue structures of biological samples are easily recognizable under the electron microscope, they are treated with a staining agent. The standard staining agent for this is uranyl ...

Let's take a look at how to observe cells under a microscope. No prizes for guessing the first thing you'll need: a microscope. But don't worry if you don't have one of your own. Ask your school if ...

Cells are tiny, so we use microscopes to see their details. A slide is a thin piece of glass used to hold objects which are examined under a microscope. Peel a thin layer of cells from an onion. Place ...
