Quantum Dot Microscopy

Quantum Dot Microscopy uses tiny semiconductor particles called quantum dots to improve imaging resolution. When illuminated with light, these dots emit bright, precise colors that can be used to highlight specific structures within biological samples. Because quantum dots are very small and their emitted light is highly specific, they allow scientists to see detailed details at a nanoscale level, surpassing traditional microscopy limits. This technology enables clearer, more accurate visualization of cells, proteins, and other microscopic components, advancing research in biology and medicine.
