He crafted his own lenses and turned out to be 300x magnification, which was a huge jump in power compared to the Janssen microscope. He was the first observations of bacteria and protozoa.]]> 2021-07-07 14:39:39 UTC https://padlet.com/eng_gia_ky1/rvlnejr18xhog14g/wish/1640460016 Audrey https://padlet.com/eng_gia_ky1/rvlnejr18xhog14g/wish/1640460094
Robert Hooke's Microscope

Robert Hook refined the design of the compound microscope around 1665 and published a book titled Micrographia which illustrated his findings using the instrument.

What they learned advanced cell theory. Scientists could easily tell that plants were completely made up of cells. That's because plant cells have a layer on the outside called a cell wall. However, this was not so obvious for animal cells, which lack a cell wall. Many scientists believed that animals were made of "globules."
 
German scientists Theodore Schwann and Mattias Schleiden studied cells. Schwann studied animal cells and Schleiden studied plant cells. These scientists found key differences between the two cell types. They had the idea that cells were the simplest units of both plants and animals.

It became possible to maintain, grow, and manipulate cells outside of living organisms. The first continuous cell line to be so cultured was in 1951 by George Otto Gey and coworkers, derived from cervical cancer cells taken from Henrietta Lacks, who died from her cancer in 1951. The cell line, which was eventually referred to as HeLa cells, have been the watershed in studying cell biology in the way that the structure of DNA was the significant breakthrough of molecular biology]]> 2021-07-07 14:47:25 UTC https://padlet.com/eng_gia_ky1/rvlnejr18xhog14g/wish/1640472114 Abhinav https://padlet.com/eng_gia_ky1/rvlnejr18xhog14g/wish/1640473360 Researchers invented a new type of microscope called reflective matrix microscope, which uses adaptive optics techniques.
