The concept of using fluorescence to study biological materials dates back to the late 19th century, but the first practical fluorescence microscope was not developed until the 1930s. In 1938, Robert Goldstein and Richard Manly, researchers at the University of California, Berkeley, published a paper describing the use of fluorescence to study cells and tissues … Read more

Ion exchange chromatography (IEC) is a chromatographic technique that allows for the separation of ions and polar molecules based on their charge. It utilizes a stationary phase composed of an insoluble matrix with covalently bonded charged groups. These charged groups can attract and bind ions of the opposite charge present in the mobile phase, which … Read more

What is Ocular Micrometer? Working Principle of Ocular Micrometer The principle of an ocular micrometer revolves around using a calibrated scale to accurately measure the size of objects viewed through a microscope. This scale, typically divided into 100 divisions, each measuring 0.01 millimeters (µm), is an essential component placed within the eyepiece of the microscope. … Read more
