Fluid inclusions are microscopic bubbles of liquids and gases that are trapped during the formation of crystals in various geological environments.

Discover the process of characterisation of the mechanical properties of samples through mechanical force testing using optical hot stage microscopy. This includes everything from tensile strain testing to 3-point bending experiments, with temperature and environmental control.

Cryo correlative light electron microscopy (cryo-CLEM) is a powerful technique that combines the advantages of cryo-fluorescence microscopy and cryo-electron microscopy to study biological samples in their near-native state. Cryo-CLEM allows researchers to identify and locate specific molecules of interest within the ultrastructure of cells or tissues, revealing the molecular mechanisms of life.
