Ronald Finn, in Liverpool, England applied a microscopic technique for detecting fetal cells in the mother's blood.

The specimens that are imaged with microscopic techniques can also be manipulated by optical tweezers and laser micro-scalpels, which are further applications in the field of biophotonics.
3.
One challenge for them has been to develop microscopic techniques so fine that they could detect any preserved cell walls in the supposed microbe fossils, if these are indeed fossils.
4.
In addition to the above integral methods, the distribution of crystalline and amorphous regions can be visualized with microscopic techniques, such as polarized light microscopy and transmission electron microscopy.
5.
The recognition of the active mechanism ( s ) in a material almost always requires the use of microscopic techniques, in most cases using a combination of optical microscopy, TEM.
6.
Bacteria such as " Mycobacterium leprae " and " Treponema pallidum " can be grown in animals, although serological and microscopic techniques make the use of live animals unnecessary.
7.
The findings from experiments performed in bulk samples of transition metals, rare earths, Heusler alloys and spin glass were related to results obtained from microscopic techniques such as NMR, Mossbauer and neutron diffraction.
8.
Although a combination of microscopic techniques with image analysis can provide information on nanocellulose fibril widths, it is more difficult to determine nanocellulose fibril lengths because of entanglements and difficulties in identifying both ends of individual nanofibrils.
9.
He continued his pioneering neurophysiological and behavioral work on the organization and functions of visual cortex in the parietal lobe and continued to develop the use of optical microscopic techniques to monitor neuronal activity in the cerebral cortex.
10.
A researcher was employed and an electron microscopic technique was then devised which confirmed the suspicion that human papillomavirus ( HPV ) particles were present in these abnormal cells, in both cytologic and histologic preparations ( Pap smears and cervical biopsies ).
