Reducing image distortions due to temperature-related microscope stage drift.

Journal of microscopy, Vol. 210, No. Pt 2. (May 2003), pp. 131-137.

X Abstract

Distortions in confocal 3D image data sets were related to movements of the microscope stage that matched fluctuations in laboratory temperature. Movement was apparent in all three axes. Adding a draught-proof enclosure, covering the stage, objective lenses and supporting structures, minimized these short-term fluctuations. However, the stage still tracked slow changes in laboratory temperature and was sensitive to heat sources mounted on the microscope. Suggestions are made about microscope design.

CiteULike organises scholarly (or academic) papers or literature and provides bibliographic (which means it makes bibliographies) for universities and higher education establishments. It helps undergraduates and postgraduates. People studying for PhDs or in postdoctoral (postdoc) positions. The service is similar in scope to EndNote or RefWorks or any other reference manager like BibTeX, but it is a social bookmarking service for scientists and humanities researchers.
