A Simple Confocal Microscopy-based Method for Assessing Sperm Movement
In the field of reproductive medicine, assessment of sperm motility is a key factor for achieving successful artificial insemination, in vitro fertilization, or intracellular sperm injection. In this study, the motility of boar sperms was estimated using real-time imaging via confocal microscopy. To confirm this confocal imaging method, flagellar beats and whiplash-like movement angles were com...
متن کاملAssessing diabetic neuropathy using corneal confocal microscopy.
N europathy is a frequent complication of diabetes and is a major cause of morbidity and mortality, potentially affecting distal sensory, motor, and autonomic nerves. Sequelae of diabetic neuropathy (DN) include foot ulceration, which can lead to the devastating consequence of lower limb amputation. Accurate and timely detection, characterization, and quantification of DN are critical in order ...
متن کاملA Rapid and Simple Method for Microscopy-Based Stomata Analyses
There are two major methodical approaches with which changes of status in stomatal pores are addressed: indirectly by measurement of leaf transpiration, and directly by measurement of stomatal apertures. Application of the former method requires special equipment, whereas microscopic images are utilized for the direct measurements. Due to obscure visualization of cell boundaries in intact leave...
متن کاملConfocal scanning fluorescence microscopy: a new method for phagocytosis research.
An important new method for phagocytosis research, confocal scanning fluorescence light microscopy (CSFM), is demonstrated using fluorescent microspheres ingested by murine macrophages. CSFM, in combination with Nomarski differential interference contrast microscopy (DIC), can resolve microspheres inside cells from microspheres attached to the surface of cells. Further, combined CSFM and DIC im...
متن کاملA simple method for motorized alignment of Osmic confocal optics
A system for the remote alignment of X-ray optics has been designed to address safety considerations related to manual optic adjustment. The described system also addresses some of the common problems associated with the alignment process, such as binding of components and the effects of external forces due to user contact that lead to irreproducibility of the process. The system as described s...
