Inverted microscopes find widespread use in various scientific disciplines:
Cell Biology:
l Cell Culture Observation: Monitoring cell growth, proliferation, and morphology in real-time.
l Cell-to-Cell Interactions: Studying interactions between cells, such as cell migration, adhesion, and phagocytosis.
l Intracellular Processes: Observing intracellular events like mitosis, meiosis, and organelle dynamics.
Microbiology:
l Microbial Growth and Morphology: Examining bacterial and fungal cultures in liquid media.
l Microbial Interactions: Studying interactions between microorganisms, such as predator-prey relationships and biofilm formation.
Materials Science:
l Surface Analysis: Examining surface features of materials, such as crystal structures and defects.
l Particle Analysis: Observing and characterizing microscopic particles.
Biomedical Research:
l Drug Discovery: Screening for drug efficacy and toxicity on living cells.
l Immunology: Studying immune cell responses and interactions.
l Developmental Biology: Observing embryonic development and tissue differentiation.
