Showing a microscopic section from the tree core sample shared below where the rings are most narrow. The image was captured at 200x magnification using the Mitutoyo 20x Micro Lens (Micro Kit Required).
Tree Core at 200x magnification (20x Optic)
Showing the complete coring section through the diameter of the tree sample. The image was captured at 50x magnification using the 1-5x MP-E 65mm Macro Lens.
Tree Core Cross Section for Context (50x Magnification)
The MicroCore is an automated scanning platform built to automatically image small shafted sections of tree core at various depths and diameters. The system stabilizes the core sample and allows the camera to combine focus stacking capabilities with panoramic photography in order to produce crystal clear results without a human presence. The system includes the fluorescence kit.
The innovative lighting configuration allows for completely balanced images using methods from reflected light microscopy. The lighting configuration simulates illumination methods used by the Macropod PRO 3D line. In this case, flashes are strategically positioned behind the sample in order to reflect diffused light onto the surface of the sample. This completely eliminates the requirement for polarizers and balances the final image to be free from glare and other artifacts common in microscopy and flash photography. See the images below for examples.

A thrombus, colloquially called a blood clot, is the final product of the blood coagulationstep in hemostasis. There are two components to a thrombus: aggregated platelets and red blood cells that form a plug, and a mesh of cross-linked fibrin protein. The substance making up a thrombus is sometimes called cruor. A thrombus is a healthy response to injury intended to prevent bleeding, but can be harmful in thrombosis, when clots obstruct blood flow through healthy blood vessels.

Saliva is a watery substance formed in the mouths of animals, secreted by the salivary glands. Human saliva comprises 99.5% water, plus electrolytes, mucus, white blood cells, epithelial cells (which can be used to extract DNA), glycoproteins, enzymes (such as amylase and lipase), antimicrobial agents such as secretory IgA and lysozyme.[1] The enzymes found in saliva are essential in beginning the process of digestion of dietary starches and fats. These enzymes also play a role in breaking down food particles entrapped within dental crevices, thus protecting teeth from bacterial decay.[2] Furthermore, saliva serves a lubricative function, wetting food and permitting the initiation of swallowing, and protecting the mucosal surfaces of the oral cavity from desiccation.[3]

3D printing, also known as additive manufacturing (AM), refers to processes used to create a three-dimensional object in which layers of material are formed under computer control to create an object. Objects can be of almost any shape or geometry and are produced using digital model data from a 3D model or another electronic data source such as an Additive Manufacturing File (AMF) file. STL is one of the most common file types that 3D printers can read. Thus, unlike material removed from a stock in the conventional machining process, 3D printing or AM builds a three-dimensional object from computer-aided design (CAD) model or AMF file by successively adding material layer by layer.
The term “3D printing” originally referred to a process that deposits a binder material onto a powder bed with inkjet printer heads layer by layer. More recently, the term is being used in popular vernacular to encompass a wider variety of additive manufacturing techniques. United States and global technical standards use the official term additive manufacturingfor this broader sense. ISO/ASTM52900-15 defines seven categories of AM processes within its meaning: binder jetting, directed energy deposition, material extrusion, material jetting, powder bed fusion, sheet lamination and vat photopolymerization.

Red blood cells (RBCs), also called erythrocytes, are the most common type of blood cell and the vertebrate organism’s principal means of delivering oxygen (O2) to the body tissues—via blood flow through the circulatory system] RBCs take up oxygen in the lungs or gills and release it into tissues while squeezing through the body’s capillaries. They are between 6-8 microns in diameter.
The cytoplasm of erythrocytes is rich in hemoglobin, an iron-containing biomolecule that can bind oxygen and is responsible for the red color of the cells. The cell membrane is composed of proteins and lipids, and this structure provides properties essential for physiological cell function such as deformability and stability while traversing the circulatory system and specifically the capillary network.
In humans, mature red blood cells are flexible and oval biconcave disks. They lack a cell nucleus and most organelles, in order to accommodate maximum space for hemoglobin. Approximately 2.4 million new erythrocytes are produced per second in human adults. The cells develop in the bone marrow and circulate for about 100–120 days in the body before their components are recycled by macrophages. Each circulation takes about 20 seconds. Approximately a quarter of the cells in the human body are red blood cells.
