Fluorescence and electron microscopy images of snail shells and love darts.
February's Under the Microscope is here featuring...SNAILS suggested by Lucy Silvey! When it comes to snails, there's only one expert we could turn to: resident snail aficionado Prof. Angus Davison from the School of Life Sciences. He generously provided us with snail shells and even a love dart for imaging! As this marks our 12th monthly suggestion, we're treating you to fluorescence and electron microscopy images of snail shells and love darts. Fluorescence microscopy images were captured by Jordan Kirby using the Leica M205 FA microscope, and electron microscopy images were captured by Lorelei Robertson using the Thermo Fisher (FEI) XL30 SEM.
