Popis: Super Resolution (SR) microscopy has become a powerful tool to study cellular architecture at the nanometer scale. Single molecule localization microscopy (SMLM) is a method in which fluorophore labels repeatedly switch On and Off ("blink"). Their exact locations are estimated by computing the centers of individual blinks. Therefore, the image quality depends on the density of the detected labels, as well as the accuracy of the estimation of their location. Both are influenced by several factors. Here we present a step-by-step method that optimizes many of these factors to facilitate multicolor imaging.
