epifluorescence — Method of fluorescence microscopy in which the excitatory light is transmitted through the objective onto the specimen rather than through the specimen; only reflected excitatory light needs to be filtered out rather than transmitted light which… … Dictionary of molecular biology

Fluorescence interference contrast microscopy — Fluorescence interference contrast (FLIC) microscopy is a microscopic technique developed to achieve z resolution on the nanometer scale. FLIC occurs whenever fluorescent objects are in the vicinity of a reflecting surface (e.g. Si wafer). The… … Wikipedia
confocal microscopy — A system of (usually) epifluorescence light microscopy in which a fine laser beam of light is scanned over the object through the objective lens. The technique is particularly good at rejecting light from outside the plane of focus, and so… … Dictionary of molecular biology
Fluorescence microscope — An upright fluorescence microscope (Olympus BX61) with the fluorescent filter cube turret above the objective lenses, coupled with a digital camera. A fluorescence microscope is an optical microscope used to study properties of organic or… … Wikipedia

Photosynthetic picoplankton — is the fraction of the plankton performing photosynthesis composed by cells between 0.2 and 2 µm (picoplankton). It is especially important in the central oligotrophic regions of the world oceans that have very low concentration of nutrients.… … Wikipedia
Condenser (microscope) — A condenser is one of the main components of the optical system of many transmitted light compound microscopes. A condenser is a lens that serves to concentrate light from the illumination source that is in turn focused through the object and… … Wikipedia
