Cells and staining in Las Vegas
microscope: Tecnai 12 / DeltaVision widefield microscope
description: It occurred in some photoshop experimentation to find the best way of overlaying Fluorescence and EM images, it’s an inverted color set. While not very informative, it makes a very colorful image. It reminded me of the many colorful lights in Las Vegas. The EM picture is a stitch made with serial EM software on a Tecnai 12, the fluorescence is from a DeltaVision widefield microscope. I’d like to place it in the category ‘Electron microscopy’ images of the competition
