Leica M165 FC and M205 FA Discover entirely new worlds of research with the new Leica fluorescence stereomicroscopes

Fluorescence microscopy techniques are critical for studying the functions within organisms in modern developmental, molecular, and cellular biology. Fluorescence microscopy gives researchers insight into a world normally hidden from sight. The structures within an organism and their dynamic processes can be specifically targeted with fluorescence dyes to render them visible at the sub cellular level, which helps researchers to better understand the molecular principles and complex relationships on which life itself is based. Science in the fields of cellular and developmental biology has evolved...
