Researchers at Hokkaido University have engineered a fluorescent dye that keeps glowing even when submerged in superacidic media, a class of chemicals so aggressive they can protonate methane, and ...

Multiphoton microscopy is used in biomedical research to study cells and tissues. Today, so-called two-photon microscopy is used to study processes within cells, but the technique has limitations in ...

Physically magnifying objects using a key moisture-absorbing ingredient in diapers has opened an unprecedented view of the microbial world. When you slip a slide under a microscope, a system of glass ...

Fluorescence microscopy is a cornerstone of modern biological research, widely used to reveal cellular structures, molecular interactions, and dynamic life processes. Computational fluorescence ...

FLIM principles. Schematic overview of fluorescence lifetime data acquisition and analysis in time−domain (td) and frequency−domain (fd) modes. In tdFLIM, photon arrival times are recorded after each ...

A mechanosensitive fluorescent probe visualises and quantifies the mechanical stress on bacterial membranes upon contact with a surface. (Nanowerk News) In natural environments, bacteria rarely live ...

The pE-300 white from CoolLED delivers powerful, broad-spectrum LED illumination designed for fluorescence microscopy in both hospital and research laboratory settings. Offering a mercury-free ...

As the second leading cause of death globally, cancer is a worldwide health crisis, particularly as life expectancies continue to increase. In its final stages, cancer spreads throughout the body in a ...

New technique to image single lipids: Lipids are notoriously difficult to detect with light microscopy. Using a new chemical labeling strategy, the Dresden team has overcome this limitation, enabling ...

It has been over 60 years since Osamu Shimomura et al. discovered Green Fluorescent Protein (GFP) 1. Since then, the color palette for fluorescent proteins has been extended to span blue through to ...
