Most potential oncology drugs fail during the drug development pipeline, even when there has been promising data for their efficacy during the in vitro stage. This makes it vital to identify in vitro ...

To isolate specific cell populations, researchers frequently employ fluorescence-activated cell sorting (FACS). While this flow cytometry-based technique analyzes the cells’ fluorescence, it cannot ...

Scientists captured clear images of biomolecules in single live cells in water for the first time using infrared (IR) transmission imaging. The IR technique enables researchers to measure the mass of ...

Nikon just announced the winners of the 2024 Nikon Small World Photomicrography Competition, where scientific microscope images become art. This year’s top prize went to Bruno Cisterna, who (assisted ...

Fluorescence-based imaging methods have recorded many details of cell dynamics and behavior, but the full 3D orientation and position of fluorescently marked ensembles has remained difficult to ...

The CellVoyager CQ1 extracts rich features, making comprehensive high-content cellular image analysis possible, while the Nipkow Spinning Disk Confocal Technology enables high-speed scanning while ...

Macrophages, the immune system’s front-line scavenger cells, do more than simply digest dead cells. A new study published in Nature Communications shows they actively extract nuclear DNA from dying ...

At an international conference this week, experts will work to chart a path forward as they tackle the promise and perils of mirror-image cells. Reading time 2 minutes The prospect of creating “mirror ...

Cells actively help to capture and incorporate influenza viruses. Here, a cell is shown, with a virus in the centre of the image. Fever, aching limbs and a runny nose – as winter returns, so too does ...

An image of biomolecules, such as nucleic acids, lipids and proteins, in live cells using an imaging technique called infrared (IR) transmission microscopy. To accelerate biotechnology innovations, ...
