Using Confocal Laser Scanning Microscopy to Study Fossil Inclusion in Baltic Amber, a New Approach

Abstract:

We demonstrate that confocal laser scanning microscopy could be successfully used for rapid search of the organisms in the dark part of the amber samples. Combination of mid-infrared spectroscopy, confocal laser scanning microscopy and optical microscopy, allowed to identify and assess the quality of Baltic amber with fossil inclusion. Inclusion was identified as a spider from suborder Araneomorphae family Typhlopidae and it was struck by the mycelium.
