Using confocal laser scanning microscopy, scanning electron microscopy and phase contrast light microscopy to examine marine biofilms
Confocal laser scanning rnicroscopy (CLSM) was used to examine living organisms within marine biofilms growing on microscope slides and on natural opaque and uneven substrata such as rocks and shells. The results were compared to images of identical fields observed under transmitted llght and phase contrast microscopy and scanning electron microscopy. Confocal microscopy proved superior in sevc...
متن کاملLaser Scanning Confocal Microscopy
Laser scanning confocal microscopy has become an invaluable tool for a wide range of investigations in the biological and medical sciences for imaging thin optical sections in living and fixed specimens ranging in thickness up to 100 micrometers. Modern instruments are equipped with 3-5 laser systems controlled by high-speed acousto-optic tunable filters (AOTFs), which allow very precise regula...
متن کاملConfocal laser scanning microscopy.
Many technological advancements of the past decade have contributed to improvements in the photon efficiency of the confocal laser scanning microscope (CLSM). The resolution of images from the new generation of CLSMs is approaching that achieved by the microscope itself because of continued development in digital imaging methods, laser technology and the availability of brighter and more photos...
متن کاملpreliminary study of in vivo formed dental plaque using confocal microscopy and scanning electron microscopy
objective: confocal laser scanning microscopy (clsm) is relatively a new light microscopical imaging technique with a wide range of applications in biological sciences. primary value of clsm for the biologist is its ability to provide optical sections from three-dimensional specimen. the present study was designed to assess the thickness content of in vivo accumulated dental plaque using clsm a...
متن کاملCombining Atomic Force Microscopy and Laser Scanning Confocal Microscopy
Introduction The visualisation of sample elements using various forms of microscopy relies not only on magnification but also contrast. As such, differing forms of microscopy offer different information about a sample. Laser scanning confocal microscopy (LSCM) provides information about the 3D location of a particular, labelled component within a sample and has the additional advantage of exclu...
