Blue Laser Diode Improves Fluorescence Imaging

Kevin Robinson

Researchers at London's Imperial College of Science, Technology and Medicine have developed a wide-field fluorescence lifetime imaging system that can simultaneously sample up to 36 wells on a multiwell plate. The technique, which employs a blue laser diode as the excitation source, holds promise for rapid imaging in applications such as drug discovery and parallel gene sequencing. In this image of a rat's ear, fluorescence lifetime imaging using a blue laser diode allows identification of features such as a blood vessel (blue) and elastic cartilage (red).
