Fluorescence Lifetime Imaging Could Improve Cancer Surgery Outcomes
BOSTON, Oct. 24, 2023 — Extreme precision is required to surgically remove a cancerous tumor without damaging the surrounding healthy tissue. Yet surgeons often must rely on their eyes and hands to determine where to cut. Fluorescence lifetime (FLT) imaging, developed at...
Three-Photon Microscopy Reveals Immune Cell Behavior in Real Time
ITHACA, N.Y., Feb. 10, 2022 — A research group from Cornell University has used three-photon microscopy to image the full depth of the popliteal lymph node in a living mouse — reportedly for the first time. The researchers successfully observed the dynamic interactions of...
Low-cost SWIR Imager Shows Promise for Machine Vision
ST. GALLEN, Switzerland, Nov. 4, 2021 — A European research group has created a device for upconverting shortwave infrared (SWIR) to visible light. The team’s all-organic SWIR upconversion device consists of a SWIR-sensitive photodetector integrated with a visible light-emitting...
Polymer Molecules Fluoresce After Chemical Adjustments
ZURICH, April 8, 2021 — ETH Zurich researchers have introduced a method that relies on chemical adjustments occurring in fluorescent organic polymer molecules to generate a broad palette of color. The approach is an alternative to mixing different molecules to achieve...
SMILES Brighten Fluorescent Materials
BLOOMINGTON, Ind., Aug. 11, 2020 — A joint effort between researchers at Indiana University and the University of Copenhagen has yielded a new class of materials, called small-molecule ionic isolation lattices (SMILES), which the researchers say are the brightest fluorescent...
Bright, Photostable Dye Developed for In Vivo Voltage Imaging
ASHBURN, Va., Aug. 12, 2019 — A “misfit” fluorescent dye, developed to round out a spectrum of dyes, is becoming a cornerstone of a new brain imaging tool developed at Howard Hughes Medical Institute’s Janelia Research Campus. The tool, which is named Voltron,...
Improved Optical Multiplexing with Temporal DNA Barcodes
DURHAM, N.C., April 18, 2019 — In a new imaging technique developed at Duke University in collaboration with Oak Ridge National Laboratory, short strands of DNA were labeled with fluorescent, temporal “barcodes” for observing biochemical activity at the molecular...
Quantum Dots Replace Dyes to Stabilize Cell Imaging
CHAMPAIGN, Ill., Nov. 6, 2018 — A new molecular probe, based on the fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) technique, uses quantum dots (QDs) instead of fluorescent dyes to illuminate molecules and diseased cells. Developed by a team from the University of Illinois at...
Broad Palette of Fluorescent Dyes May Advance Biological Imaging
ASHBURN, Va., Oct. 19, 2017 — To better illuminate the inner workings of cells, researchers have developed a way to adjust the properties of fluorescent dyes deliberately, resulting in an expanded palette of dyes that are bolder, brighter and more cell-permeable. Their novel...
Life Technologies Acquires Advanced Microscopy Group
CARLSBAD, Calif., Nov. 8, 2012 — Life Technologies Corp. has purchased Advanced Microscopy Group (AMG), a developer of imaging systems for research microscopy, to expand Life Technologies’ cell imaging instrumentation product line. Terms of the deal were not disclosed.
Light Focused Deep Inside Tissue
PASADENA, Calif., June 28, 2012 — A new procedure that is as simple as an ultrasound more than doubles the depth that light can be focused inside biological tissues and soon could enable doctors to perform incision-free surgery or to diagnose cancer by seeing tumors inside the body.
Microscope Uses Broadband Light to Track Cell Flow
HAIFA, Israel, May 24, 2012 — A novel optical instrument no bigger than a breadbox can take real-time images of blood coursing through our veins without harsh and short-lived fluorescent dyes.
Körber Science Prize Awarded to STED Originator
HAMBURG, Germany, July 11, 2011 — Stefan Hell of Max Planck Institute for Biophysical Chemistry in Göttingen has been awarded the 2011 Körber European Science Prize for his pioneering discoveries in the field of optics. Stimulated emission depletion, or STED,...
Nanotubes Improve Fluorescence Imaging
STANFORD, Calif., June 1, 2011 — An improved imaging method using fluorescent carbon nanotubes allows researchers to see centimeters deep into a mouse with far more clarity than conventional dyes provide. For a creature the size of a mouse, a few centimeters makes a great...
Quantum Dots: Applications for Artificial Atoms Expanding
Feb 23, 2011 — The use of quantum dots is nearly ubiquitous in Förster’s resonance energy transfer (FRET), but scientists are just beginning to scratch the surface on other applications for the semiconductor nanocrystals, such as in biosensors and as a way...
NIR Light Enables Deep Look at Cells
ORLANDO, Sept. 16, 2010 — A “game-changing” technique using near-infrared light enables scientists to look deeper into the guts of cells, potentially opening up a new frontier in the fights against cancer and many other diseases. University of Central...
Quantum Dots Are Finding Their Place in the World
Apr 12, 2010 — There has been a panoply of research into the next big thing in quantum dots – those semiconducting artificial atoms that are ubiquitous in fluorescence imaging, biological and chemical sensing, and display applications. Quantum dots of more...
Four Lasers Used for Color-Blind DNA Sequencing
May 1, 2005 — Increasing the speed and accuracy of DNA sequencing and decreasing its cost are necessary for it to become a routine part of individualized medicine. Traditionally, identifying the order of bases in a sequence has required the labeling of pieces of...
