What are the Advantages of Using Fluorescence Scanners?
Fluorescence scanners offer several advantages over traditional histological techniques:
High Sensitivity: Capable of detecting low levels of fluorescence, making it possible to identify rare or low-abundance targets. Specificity: Fluorescent labels can be highly specific, allowing for precise targeting of molecules of interest. Multiplexing: Can simultaneously detect multiple fluorescent signals, enabling the study of several markers in a single sample. Quantitative Data: Provides quantitative data that can be used for statistical analysis and comparison. Non-Destructive: The technique is non-destructive, preserving the sample for further analysis if needed.
