This study provides a paradigm for how the vast chemical diversity inherent in agricultural
crops can be screened to identify compounds that deter insect disease vectors and
pests. Such a “phytoscreen...

At @embo.org #LSFM last year, we put AxL CTLS to the test with #Argolight "3D matrix of rings" sample - they're not beads! The results speak for themselves.
Join our webinar June 30 to learn more about high-speed high-resolution cleared specimen imaging.
