They are used ubiquitously in a wide range of fields: from 2D materials, semiconductors, ferroelectrics, and batteries to biomolecules, polymers, and cell biology. As the name implies, AFMs are microscopes. However, rather than using focused light or electrons to magnify sample features, AFMs scan a mechanical probe with a very sharp tip over the surface to create a high-resolution 3D topographical image. Further, by modifying the probe composition or structure, other material properties (electrical, mechanical, magnetic, etc.) can be simultaneously measured and mapped onto the topographic image for precise structure/property correlation. Clearly, the probe is key to unlocking the power of the AFM, thus, choosing the right probe is critical. In this article, we will provide novice and experienced users with basic information and guidelines to simplify the AFM probe selection process.","PeriodicalId":74194,"journal":{"name":"Microscopy today","volume":"120 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135509280","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

To give a taste of what is possible, a live virtual Nature Experience Radical Design (NERD) Jam was created. Instead of starting with a problem, designers, biologists, engineers, microscopists, and curious people were invited to begin with the solution. By observing and empathizing with nature, both in its element and under a microscope, microscopy reveals unique structural adaptations and possible unknown strategies and mechanisms when exploring nature as a series of successful devices in particular environmental contexts. By looking at nature on multiple scales, one can discover unique models to design sustainable solutions for multiple human challenges.","PeriodicalId":74194,"journal":{"name":"Microscopy today","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"43476549","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Advances in microscope digital image detection systems over the last decade have played an integral part in establishing digital imaging as the medium of choice for most types of microscopy. Although we still refer to them as cameras, in actuality, current detector systems constitute specific hardware and software components specifically adapted for specific types of microscopy. Although these advances have facilitated data collection with microscopes, the plethora of choices comes with the need to understand which system best suits a specific researcher’s needs. In an effort to help navigate the multiple choices available, this article and a subsequent one will list what I feel are the major parameters to use in the evaluation of different detection systems, describe the major categories of cameras available, and discuss the advantages and pitfalls of each digital image solution.","PeriodicalId":74194,"journal":{"name":"Microscopy today","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"42231389","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In microscopy, the technique has been in use since the 1940s by pathologists and research scientists. At first glance it appears a straightforward procedure. In practice, however, an IHC protocol has many steps where problems can occur resulting in either false positive or false negative data. IHC can be used for ultrastructural studies using electron microscopy (EM), but the protocols used for light microscopy must be adapted. While IHC techniques have been published extensively, a certain amount of confusion exists as to how to optimize them. This series of articles describes the steps involved in IHC and their function, and some variations that occur in specific protocols on differing cell and tissue types. It is hoped that a better understanding of these steps will help to guide users in determining the optimal conditions for carrying through IHC protocols.","PeriodicalId":74194,"journal":{"name":"Microscopy today","volume":"10 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135509281","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
