  • Microscopic systems and methods for observation of living cells and organisms
    Patent number: 10838185
    Abstract: The invention relates to systems and methods for observing materials, such as living cells or organisms, wherein the systems and methods utilize a microscopy system having an illumination source and an objective lens. A specimen including a predetermined amount of a liquid medium and a predetermined amount of an extracellular strongly absorbing dye is positioned for observation using the microscopy system. The illumination of the specimen correlates to the spectral region around the peak of the dye absorbance for the dye used in the system, such that live cells and organisms appear in contrast over a dark background for observation.
    Type: Grant
