Fluorescent Imaging

Fluorescent imaging is a technique used in science and medicine to visualize specific structures or molecules within cells and tissues. It involves using special dyes called fluorophores that emit bright light when exposed to a certain type of illumination, usually ultraviolet or blue light. These dyes can be designed to attach to particular cellular components, making them visible under a microscope. This method helps researchers and doctors observe the location, behavior, and interactions of specific molecules in living or fixed samples, providing valuable insights into biological processes and diseases.
