Arylalkylamine Substituted arylalkylamines are a group of chemical compounds. Two major classes of arylalkylamines include "indolylalkylamines" (e.g., tryptamines (a.k.a. indolylethylamines)) and "phenylalkylamines" (e.g., phenethylamines and amphetamines (a.k.a. phenylisopropylamines)), which consist of the monoamine ...

Optical sectioning is the process by which a suitably designed microscope can produce clear images of focal planes deep within a thick sample. This is used to reduce the need for thin sectioning using instruments such as the microtome. Many different techniques for optical sectioning are used and several microscopy tec...

Optical sectioning High magnification objective lenses typically have higher numerical apertures (and so better optical sectioning) than low magnification objectives. Oil immersion objectives typically have even larger numerical apertures so improved optical sectioning. The resolution in the depth direction (the "z res...

Optical sectioning This adds an extra way in which optical sectioning can be improved by making illumination specific to only the focal plane. Confocal microscopy uses a scanning point or points of light to illuminate the sample. In conjunction with a pinhole at a conjugate focal plane this acts to filter out light fro...
