Figure Lengend Snippet: Scattering angle-resolved bioimaging. ( A ) Schematic of the experimental setup. The checker pattern consists of illuminated white patches and non-illuminated black patches. By translating the pattern, two types of images—illuminated and non-illuminated regions—can be acquired. ( B ) Transmitted light microscope (Olympus BX53) equipped with a halogen lamp, bandpass filter, high-frequency checker pattern filter, and a camera (GS3-U3-60QS6, FLIR Systems). ( C) The high-frequency checker pattern filter consists of a photomask with four binary checker patterns, positioned between the field diaphragm and the condenser lens.

Article Snippet: The imaging system consisted of a transmitted light microscope (Olympus BX53 and BX63) equipped with a halogen lamp, a custom-designed high-frequency checkerboard photomask (NIPPON FILCON CO., LTD), and a camera (GS3-U3-60QS6, FLIR Systems).

Article Title: The Optimal Amount of PAMAM G3 Dendrimer in Polyurethane Matrices Makes Them a Promising Tool for Controlled Drug Release

doi: 10.3390/polym18010135

Figure Lengend Snippet: Porous structure of polyurethane foams (RF) and polyurethane–dendrimer composite containing 10% (P10F), 20% (P20F), 30% (P30F), 40% (P40F), or 50% (P50F) by mass of PAMAM G3 dendrimer. Images obtained with transmitted light microscope. Scale equals 1000 µm.

Article Snippet: Microscopic images of the foams were collected with a Pantera series transmitted light microscope (Motic, Hong Kong, China) equipped with a 10× objective lens.
