Title: Deconvolution fluorescence microscopy of yeast cells Author: Tomáš Štec Department: Institute of Physics of Charles University Supervisor: prof. RNDr. Jarmoír Plášek, CSc., Institute of Physics of Charles University Abstract: Fluorescence microscopy presents an fast and cheap alternative to more advanced imaging methods like confocal and electron microscopy, even though it is subject to heavy image distortion. It is possible to recover most of the original distortion-free image using deconvolution in computer image processing. This allows reconstruction of 3D structure of studied objects. Deconvolution procedure of NIS Elements AR program undergoes an thorough inspection in this diploma thesis. It is then applied on restoration of 3D structure of calcofluor stained cell wall of budding yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae. Changes of the structure of the cell wall during cell ageing are being examined. Cell wall of aged cells shows increased surface roughness and even ruptures at the end of cell life.
