Use of the Livecyte® System to Characterise Heterogeneous Primary Prostate Cancer Epithelial Cells
Today, patient-derived primary cell cultures are increasingly being preferred in preclinical studies, because these cell lines not only provide a better model for tumour heterogeneity but also represent inter- and intra-patient diversity much more accurately than conventional ones

			Leica Microsystems receives first FDA clearance for its FL560 fluorescence microscope filter Leica Microsystems is the first company in the US receiving FDA 510(k) clearance for the visualization of cerebrovascular blood flow in conjunction with fluorescein.

			Advanced Wound Healing Assay with Phasefocus™ Livecyte® Cell Imaging & Analysis System A well-known in vitro procedure, wound healing assay, measures the collective migration of cells. The aim of this test is to produce a cell-free area within a confluent layer of cells, either by physically excluding the cells during seeding, or creating a scratch by removing the cells after adherence.

	Investigating new cancer therapy candidates with live-cell imaging There are two main things that we've worked on in the lab as regards to drug studies. One is identifying new combinations of drugs, and working on why a combination of drugs should work better than each alone.

	Optical microscopy resolution revolution I will talk about the simple but fundamental idea that allowed breaking the diffraction barrier in fluorescence microscopy as well as about MINFLUX nanoscopy, the latest development in the field that for the first time provides true molecular resolution with visible light and standard objective lenses.

	Digital Microscope - MoticPanthera HD The Panthera HD has the same digital capabilities as the Panthera L, but it is capable of being used exclusively via digital means, since it does not have eyepiece tubes.

	Sectioning and staining large brain tissue for neuroscience research The following article is the first of a three-part series on imaging large whole mount brain sections for neuroscience research. The series covers sectioning/staining, scanning, and data management. The next two articles will be published on News-Medical in the coming weeks.
