Fluorescence microscopy is the use of a microscope to excite fluorescent molecules and use the emission wavelengths to form an image. This method allows for the precise identification and localization of specific structures, as well as the investigation of processes within cells.
This puplication consists of two chapters. The first chapter is a short introduction to Fluorescence Microscopy. In the second chapter, we will discuss some microscopes used for Fluorescence Microscopy. Although we are mainly focusing on older Leitz instruments, the basic principles are the same even for today's research systems. The links to PDF files of these two chapters are listed below.
