Milk producing cells under the microscope

Caption

This fluorescent image shows milk-producing cells from a dairy cow. The red spots are fat droplets inside the cells, stained with a dye called Nile Red. The blue areas show the cell nuclei. Mesenchymal stem cells and their "secretome" help reduce stress and increase lipid production.
