Solutions for Research
The Solutions section of our website helps you to see various research challenges that can be solved using our products. Each solution discusses a research challenge and lists the software or system that provides a solution.
The Research Examples section will point you to actual studies in which our products were used to either gather data, analyze, or display the visual information.
Need Help With Stereology? Use MBF Labs Pilot Study
Not only do we make Stereo Investigator, the most cited software for stereology, but now we’re offering to do your work for you. Send us your slides, and we’ll complete a comprehensive pilot study.
Avoiding Bias with the Optical Fractionator
If the stereological probe is designed well, and we can manage to follow all the rules, bias due to sampling design and estimation methods will be eliminated, resulting in a more accurate estimate.
Quantify Neuronal Morphology
Perform detailed morphometric analysis of neurons, such as quantifying branching structures, dendritic spine distribution, creating detailed anatomical models. Neurolucida is the standard neuron reconstruction tool in neuroscience laboratories worldwide.
Web-based research collaboration
Collaborate with remote colleagues by sharing virtual slides of microscopic slide specimens via the internet.
Count multiple fluorescently labeled cells
Stereo Investigator, combined with a spinning disk confocal microscope allows you to use stereology to quantify data rapidly, without bias or unnecessary over-sampling, getting you quickly to statistically valid results.
Serial Section Reconstruction
Perform 3D reconstructions from serial sections. Obtain quantitative results such as volumes of cytoarchitectural regions and nuclei.
Create High-resolution Image Montages
Use a research microscope to create virtual slides – high resolution image montages of complete specimens using any objective lens with any illumination technique
