Abstract

Our studies have shown that the fluorescence mode can be used to good effect in both tandem scanning microscopes (TSM: direct view confocal microscopes) as well as confocal scanning laser microscopes (CSLM). Applications are presented which show that the two great advantages of TSM are real-time viewing and real colour, which allow faster use and interpretation. CSLM are complementary, not competitive, being currently more sophisticated for low-level fluorescence work. This is equally possible with available TSM, but requires further development using CCD cameras and image-processing systems.
