The DeltaVision OMX V4 enables Total Internal Reflection Fluorescence Microscopy (TIRF). This technique uses an evanescent wave to selectively excite fluorophores that are close to the coverslip. This ...
TIRF is a microscopy technique that is used to image fluorescent molecules, such as green fluorescent protein (GFP) and fluorochromes, in liquids that are adjacent to a solid with a high refractive ...

Understanding total internal reflection in physics
Understand the physics behind total internal reflection and why light can become completely trapped inside a medium. This video explains the conditions required for total internal reflection, the role ...
The body hairs of the Saharan silver ant cause total internal reflection of light to make the ants almost ten times more reflective, preventing overheating and yielding their silver sheen, according ...
Cool operator: the Saharan silver ant Cataglyphis bombycina. (Courtesy: P Landmann) A species of desert-dwelling ant is able to tolerate temperatures exceeding 50 °C because its body hairs act like ...
GM has filed a patent for an embedded vehicle window lighting system that can emit light in such a manner as to reduce an occurrence of total internal reflection of the light. The new GM patent ...
In TIRF microscopy, fluorescent molecules are in a sample in an aqueous environment that is near a solid with a high refractive index, usually a glass coverslip. At what is called the critical angle, ...
