A hybrid microscope allows scientists to simultaneously image the full 3D orientation and position of an ensemble of molecules, such as labeled proteins inside cells. The microscope combines polarized ...

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 ...

By moving around, some cancer cells force attacking immune cells to just nibble at the edges rather than engulf them ...

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 ...

Modern bioassays tend to fall under three common modalities: colorimetric, luminometric or fluorometric. Colorimetric assays record the amount of light absorbed by a reporter compound. This absorbance ...

Scientists have captured an unprecedented, real-time view of influenza viruses as they move across and slip inside human cells. The footage reveals that cells are far from passive targets and instead ...

Artificial intelligence (AI) could be used to identify drug resistant infections, significantly reducing the time taken for a correct diagnosis, Cambridge researchers have shown. The team showed that ...

Researchers can use it to test how well antiviral drugs work directly in living cells and see the results in real time. The team also points out that the same tool could be used to study how other ...

The polarized diSPIM microscope, which can image full 3D orientation and position of molecules in cells. The instrument was constructed in the Hari Shroff lab at the National Institute of Biomedical ...

A new hybrid microscope for the first time allows scientists to simultaneously image the full 3D orientation and position of an ensemble of molecules, such as labeled proteins inside cells. (Nanowerk ...
