Label-free single-particle imaging of the influenza virus by objective-type total internal reflection dark-field microscopy.

Here we report label-free optical imaging of single particles of the influenza virus attached on a glass surface with a simple objective-type total internal reflection dark-field microscopy (TIRDFM). The capability of TIRDFM for the imaging of single viral particles was confirmed from fine correlati...
