A mechanosensitive fluorescent probe visualises and quantifies the mechanical stress on bacterial membranes upon contact with a surface. (Nanowerk News) In natural environments, bacteria rarely live ...

Christophe Leterrier uses advanced microscopy to uncover neurons’ intricate nanostructure and dynamics while creating ...

ST. LOUIS, MO, August 20, 2025 - A team of expert scientists led by Kirk Czymmek, PhD, director of the Advanced Bioimaging Laboratory at the Donald Danforth Plant Science Center and Heather E.

SIMIP enables high-resolution images rich in both chemical and spatial information. A quantum cascade laser (QCL) excites molecular vibrations while a spatial light modulator (SLM) generates striped ...

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 ...

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 ...

Researchers have developed a new fluorescence microscopy approach that significantly improves image resolution by acquiring three views of a sample at the same time. Their new method is particularly ...

This study presents MPALM, a novel microscopy technique that captures nanoscale biomolecular dynamics, overcoming limitations ...

For the first time, researchers have observed live and in high resolution how influenza ("flu") viruses infect living cells. This was possible thanks to a new microscopy technique, developed at ETH ...
