From overcoming classical optical limits to tracking single proteins in real time, super-resolution imaging continues to ...

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 ...

Biologists are very interested in how proteins, lipids and other compounds are organized and interact in systems. Very few organizational details can be gained by using standard transmission-based ...

A research team at the University of Tokyo has built a fluorescence microscopy system that can detect fleeting magnetic reactions inside living biological material, reactions that conventional imaging ...

A breakthrough in imaging technology promises to transform our understanding of the inner workings of living cells, and provide insights into a wide range of diseases. "It's like taking an airplane ...

Figure | Working principle of Interferometric Image Scanning Microscopy (iISM). (a) Schematic of the iISM microscope and interferometric PSF detection. (b) iISM with adaptive pixel-reassignment (APR) ...

Three-dimensional (3D) imaging is essential for investigating cellular structure and dynamics. Traditional optical methods rely on adhesive or mechanical forces to hold and scan cells, which limit ...

The brain is the most energy-demanding organ in the body, in part due to its complexity. Its components are varied and intricate: comprising different cell types, including neurons designed to ...

A new multiplex immunofluorescence workflow using standard laboratory equipment and open-source software enables detailed ...

This novel hybrid microscope allows for the simultaneous imaging of the full 3D orientation and position of molecules within cells. Researchers from the Marine Biological Laboratory (MA, USA) have ...
