πŸ€” What’s it like to use Nikon’s -powered NIS_ai modules for the NIS-Elements software?

πŸ“Ή In this video, we outline the use of our Segment_ai module for segmentation of image features that are difficult to address using traditional methods, such as intensity thresholding.

✨ After acquisition of training data, it is manually annotated for the feature of interest, allowing for training of the network.

πŸ”¬ Once trained, the Segment_ai module is ready to quickly segment new image data without further input, making it ideal for use as part of an automated imaging and analysis pipeline along with our JOBS experiment wizard and General Analysis (GA3) modules.

⏱️ πŸ”¬ How much time can the ECLIPSE Ti2-I motorized inverted for and save your workflow?

✨ With the Ti2-I, you can switch between key observation mode settings for the lab at the push of a button. The correct objective lens, polarizer/analyzer, condenser module are switched in/out of the light path and illumination brightness is automatically adjusted.

πŸ“Ή In this video, the same ICSI workflow was completed in 2:57 with the Ti2-I, compared to 4:15 with a manual model of the microscope – about 44% faster.

🀏 πŸ”¬ As the field of continues to develop and mature, more techniques are emerging with the capacity for sub-nanometer image resolution.

πŸ“„ A new Perspective in Nature Methods compares these techniques, specifically MINFLUX, RESI, ONE, and COLD. Structural biology reference standards such as nuclear pore complexes are utilized for comparison. In addition to image resolution, the author also considers the effects of binder fidelity and sample integrity.
