Computer renderings and actual images of a DNA molecule, as seen through an electron microscope (Enzo di Fabrizio via New Scientist) The image shows a single thread of double-stranded DNA ...

The incredible images below show a single strand of DNA being pulled apart and read by the molecular machinery within a ... the researchers used a novel form of electron microscopy called Cryo-EM.

It’s the most famous corkscrew in history. Now an electron microscope has captured the famous Watson-Crick double helix in all its glory, by imaging threads of DNA resting on a silicon bed of nails.

A completely new category of microscopy has been invented by researchers in the US. Dubbed DNA microscopy, the technique tags RNA molecules with a range of DNA "barcodes" which in turn flag the ...

Scientists have seen individual double-stranded DNA molecules under optical microscopes for years, but the ability to see single-stranded DNA is a new achievement, and breaking the diffraction ...

Researchers in the lab of Harold Craighead, the Charles W. Lake Professor of Engineering, used advanced nanofabrication techniques to make it easier to see how single molecules of DNA subtly ...

This is the first ever scanning electron microscope image of a strand of DNA, ... The NanoGripper, made from a single piece of folded DNA, was shown to detect covid-19 and block infections.

The super-resolution technique allows fluorescent-labeled probe DNA to pinpoint target DNA sequences in an immobilized strand in ways neither regular nor electron microscopes are able.

They developed a special high-vacuum low-energy electron microscope that could image thin free-standing bundles of DNA stretched across a hole in a membrane. ... First they added “sticky ends” to the ...
