A study introduced a three-dimensional imaging method to visualize nanoplastics in the neonatal mouse brain, enabling future ...

Nanoplastics—plastic particles smaller than one micrometer—are generated through the degradation and abrasion of plastic products and are increasingly detected in food, drinking water, air and ...

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 ...

LMU researchers have developed a method to determine how reliably target proteins can be labeled using super-resolution fluorescence microscopy. Modern microscopy techniques make it possible to ...

The fluorescence-imaging technology in cells allows study the cellular mechanisms of the organelles with multiple imaging approaches. Different fluorescent proteins work as protein tags in detecting ...

In life sciences, confocal fluorescence microscopy (CFM) is widely regarded for producing high-resolution cellular images. However, it requires fluorescent staining, which poses risks of ...

In this useful Tools & Resources article, the authors describe a new cryogenic light microscopy design and characterize its temperature and spatial stability. This compelling system avoids the ...

Cells are like metropolises, home to millions of molecular residents. If one were to stand atop a high-rise, trying to ...

Summary: Researchers developed “Core2Edge,” an advanced ex vivo human tissue model that replicates the invasive spread and ...

What is Scanning X-Ray Fluorescence (XRF) Microscopy? Scanning X-Ray Fluorescence (XRF) Microscopy is a powerful analytical technique that enables the visualization and quantification of the elemental ...
