| Summary: | This handbook provides a thorough and detailed introduction to fluorescence microscopy by exploring three main areas of the field. First discussed are the physical principles of the phenomenon of fluorescence and fluorescence microscopy, including transmitted versus incident illumination. Next is a detailed description of various microscope parts, including lenses, filters, and light sources, and a discussion of the main applications of fluorescence microscopy, including immunofluorescence, microflurometry, and photomicrography. The final section enables the reader to solve the most common problems in fluorescence microscopy. Each chapter includes an up-to-date list of review articles and books for further reading, and there are illustrations throughout the text of typical microscopes and optical components. Biologists, students, and researchers of fluorescence microscopy will value this clear and indispensable guide to the field. |
