@engineer said in Nuclear Peating:
a phase contrast microscope would let you quantitatively monitor another metabolic factor on the order of every couple days
These changes however will be a reflection of what influenced metabolism up to 3 months ago. Depending on which phase of development or maturation had been affected. Tracking and evaluation of any influencing factors requires consideration of the delay and a lot of longitudinal data.
For the quantitative measurements you can probably get an AI programmed to recognize numbers and motility etc. from short video clips. No need to rasterize and manually count. Could be little effort for valuable long-term data.

I did try this recently with a measuring cup and got... 8mL? Apparently this is a lot?
-
@engineer yeah you are shooting ROPES
-
The phase contrast microscope has arrived
It's an old Nikon from possibly the 80s or 90s but is still great!
-
@engineer now for the best part
-
The results are in (translation: there's stuff happening down there)
It looks slightly terrible on camera for some reason but is much clearer in person. Also, I don't have any proper microscope slides yet so the plastic bag used here is probably making it look slightly worse.
Next steps: get special slides and a warmer for them and maybe a better objective lens
Edit: looks like I also completely forgot to focus the condenser annulus.
