GlossaryFluorescence Microscopy (fluorescence imaging)

uses light to make specific cell parts glow for study

Fluorescence Microscopy is a technique that uses high-intensity light to excite fluorescent molecules in a sample, causing them to emit light at a different wavelength. This allows scientists to visualize and study specific components of cells and tissues with high specificity and contrast, making it particularly useful in biological research for observing structures like proteins, nucleic acids, and other cellular components.
