Original Description:
Learn about different microscopes and what scientists study with them! With the use of light and electron microscopes it is possible to study everything from different cells and bacteria to single molecules or even atoms.
In fluorescence microscopy, the sample you want to study is itself the light source. The technique is used to study specimens, which can be made to fluoresce. The fluorescence microscope is based on the phenomenon that certain material emits energy detectable as visible light when irradiated with the light of a specific wavelength. The sample can either be fluorescing in its natural form like chlorophyll and some minerals, or treated with fluorescing chemicals.
