overhead illumination effect on phototoxicity of living cells

How to minimize phototoxicity in fluorescence live cell imaging?

Although it is a well-known fact that the fluorescence process can cause phototoxicity to living cells – it sometimes seems that this problem does not always get enough attention in planning biological experiments. What is the best way to minimize the phototoxicity and still maintain images with high enough signal-to-noise? Should we minimize the exposure time and …
