  Purdue University researchers use nanoscale IR spectroscopy via AFM-IR to provide key insights into drug-polymer blends
May 11, 2012
AnasysTwo new papers are going to press featuring the use of Anasys Instruments' nanoIRTM system by Professor Lynne S. Taylor's group in the Department of Industrial and Physical Pharmacy at Purdue University. In each study, miscibility of pharmaceutically relevant blends was examined and specific sub-micrometer-sized domains characterized using standard atomic force microscopy (AFM) and nanoscale Infrared spectroscopy (AFM-IR)...
  Thermal Imaging Helps Improve Safety in Space
May 9, 2012
Thermal Imaging Helps Improve Safety in SpaceAn applications report is available from FLIR Systems that describes how its infrared camera systems were selected and have been used by NASA Langley Research Center for its shuttle and International Space Station programs. The US Space Agency initially opted in favour of infrared technology to inspect possible tile damage on the heat shields of its space shuttles following the 2003 Columbia space shuttle catastrophe. Following a thorough evaluation of all infrared cameras on the market, the NASA engineers chose a ThermaCAM S65 camera developed by FLIR Systems to undertake its investigative research...
  HORIBA Medical HemaCAM® slide digitalisation validation data published online in scientific poster
Apr 27, 2012
HemaCAM posterHORIBA Medical has announced the publication online of a scientific validation study1 of its new HemaCAM® computer-assisted microscopy module for fully automated analysis of blood smears. Published online as a poster presentation, the study was undertaken at the Saint-Joseph Saint-Luc Hospital (Lyon, France). It found that the HemaCAM® slide digitalisation system offered new functionalities compared to those of existing systems for automated cell image acquisition and identification...
  Fascinating Images Reveal Climbing Abilities of Geckos and Spiders
Nov 18, 2011
How do Geckos climbScientists from Lewis and Clark College, working collaboratively with the Joint School of Nanoscience and Nanoengineering (JSNN) in the USA have examined the fascinating climbing skills of geckos and spiders using the ORION helium ion microscope from Carl Zeiss. High resolution images displaying unique definition and detail rendition reveal even the finest structures on the feet of these animals.  This imaging advances the understanding of how the masterly climbing skills of these creatures are attributable to adhesive forces or, in other words, intermolecular attractions...
  Videos Demonstrate Utility of Unique 3D Cell Culture Technology
Oct 14, 2011
AMSBIO 3D cell cultureAMSBIO have added a major new suite of video presentations and a bibliography of downloadable technical papers that demonstrate the utility of alvetex® - a unique synthetic scaffold that enables routine 3D cell culture. alvetex® is a highly porous polystyrene scaffold engineered into a 200µm thick membrane which provides a 3D space into which cells can invade, proliferate and grow. The vertical axis of the third dimension enables additional layers of cells to form complex 3D interactions...
  Leica Science Lab – the Knowledge Portal for Microscopy and Histology is Online
Oct 11, 2011
Leica Science LabLeica Science Lab the knowledge portal of Leica Microsystems, offers scientific research and teaching material on the subjects of microscopy and histology, from the basics to specific application know-how.

  Obtain outstanding sample fidelity with the new Olympus SC100 digital colour camera
Oct 7, 2011
Olympus SC100 digital colour camera Olympus has introduced the new, easy-to-use SC100 digital colour camera for high quality brightfield imaging, especially where optimal colour reproduction and superior resolution are required. The 10.5 megapixels sensor of the SC100 allows samples to be investigated in minute detail, particularly when using a low magnification objective. This frees users from needing to take multiple, high magnification images of a sample to preserve resolution...
