🔬🌟 excited to share our new study on 3D imaging of live embryos! Compared to confocal, light sheet microscopy:
✨is 10x faster
✨Less DNA damage
✨Lower photobleaching rate
✨Faster, safer assessment of embryo quality

🔔 Bing bong! Hot off the press! Read about how light sheet microscopy is an ideal approach for metabolic imaging of preimplantation mouse embryos. Is it fast? Safe? Better than confocal microscopy?
