CONFOCAL MICROSCOPE
Unlike stereo and compound microscopes, which use
regular light for image formation, the confocal microscope
uses a laser light to scan samples that have been dyed.
These samples are prepared on slides and inserted; then,
with the aid of a dichromatic mirror, the device produces a
magnified image on a computer screen. They are commonly
used in cell biology and medical applications.
FLUORESCENCE MICROSCOPE
Microscopes can be used to view different aspects of
a sample by varying how an image is created. Fluorescence
microscopes use specific colors of light to interact with dyes.
As the dyes become illuminated, certain structures can be
isolated and viewed with their respective dyes. This type of
microscope is useful to observe specific proteins within a cell.
A camera is usually attached to capture images from the
microscope.
