This handbook provides a thorough and detailed introduction to fluorescence microscopy by exploring three main areas of the field. First discussed are the physical principles of the phenomenon of fluorescence and fluorescence microscopy, including transmitted versus incident illumination. Next is a detailed description of various microscope parts, including lenses, filters, and light sources, and a discussion of the main applications of fluorescence microscopy, including immunofluorescence, microflurometry, and photomicrography. The final section enables the reader to solve the most common problems in fluorescence microscopy. Each chapter includes an up-to-date list of review articles and books for further reading, and there are illustrations throughout the text of typical microscopes and optical components. Biologists, students, and researchers of fluorescence microscopy will value this clear and indispensable guide to the field.

<p>New interest in light microscopy of the last few years has not been backed up by adequate general literature. This book intends to fill the gap between specialized texts on detailed topics and general introductory booklets, mostly dealing with the use of the conventional light microscope only. In this short textbook both new developments in microscopy and basic facts of image formation will be treated, including often neglected topics such as axial resolving power, lens construction, photomicrography and correct use of phase-en interference contrast systems. Theoretical background will be dealt with as far as necessary for a well-considered application of these techniques enabling a deliberate choice for the approach of a certain problem. Over 150 illustrations (photomicrographs and diagrams) complete the information on microscopy of the nineties in the biomedical field, intended for scientists, doctors, technicians and research students. Many drawings have been contributed by the illustrator R. Kreuger; the photographic work has been executed by J. Peeterse. Secretarial assistance in preparing the manuscript was given by Ms T. M. S. Pierik. Dr M. J. Pearson has corrected the English of the final text.</p>
