How do photosynthetic organisms harvest light so efficiently? To help answer this question, researchers have developed an ultrafast transient absorption microscope with sensitivity approaching the ...

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 ...

Fluorescent anatomy, which recently seemed to be a quirk in unusual animals such as platypuses and opossums, was found in most living families of mammals. By Cara Giaimo At first, it seemed to be ...

When conducting fluorescence imaging in various medical applications, practitioners typically use a powdered dye known as Indocyanine Green (ICG). ICG emits fluorescence between 750 and 950 nanometers ...

Binding-dependent fluorescent nanobody probes have delivered high-specificity, low-noise imaging across the visible spectrum, ...

What is Fluorescence Correlation Spectroscopy (FCS)? Fluorescence correlation spectroscopy (FCS) is a powerful analytical technique that enables the study of dynamic processes and interactions at the ...

In recent years, fluorescence quenching microscopy (FQM) 1-3 has emerged as a viable technique that allows for the swift, cost-effective, and accurate imaging of two-dimensional (2D) materials like ...

Flow cytometry detects and measures the chemical and physical properties and characteristics of particles or cells within a population. Samples are suspended in a liquid, held in a tube, and counted ...
