Fluorescence microscopy: A statistics-optics perspective

Aleksandra Radenovic

Fundamental properties of light unavoidably impose features on images collected using fluorescence microscopes. Accounting for these features is often critical in quantitatively interpreting microscopy images, especially those gathering information at scal ...

Compact and effective photon-resolved image scanning microscope

Giorgio Tortarolo

Fluorescence confocal laser-scanning microscopy (LSM) is one of the most popular tools for life science research. This popularity is expected to grow thanks to single-photon array detectors tailored for LSM. These detectors offer unique single-photon spati ...

SPAD array technology enables fluctuation-contrast super-resolution in a confocal microscope

Edoardo Charbon, Claudio Bruschini, Ivan Michel Antolovic

A fluorescence correlation contrast is a straightforward approach to super-resolution imaging. Combining a SPAD array with a novel detection scheme (ISM), we obtain images with up to x4 times resolution enhancement. ...

Organisation and dynamics of mitochondria and their RNA.

Timo Henry René Rey

The organisation of molecules into dynamic cells, and collaboration of many of those cells over a billion years led to the evolution of human life. During the last century, biologists then began to unravel the marvels of cellular organisation with ever in ...

Investigating Tissue Mechanics in vitro Using Untethered Soft Robotic Microdevices

Mahmut Selman Sakar, Ece Özelçi, Raquel Filipa Penacho Parreira

This paper presents the design, fabrication, and operation of a soft robotic compression device that is remotely powered by laser illumination. We combined the rapid and wireless response of hybrid nanomaterials with state-of-the-art microengineering techn ...

Correction of spherical surface measurements by confocal microscopy

Toralf Scharf, Wilfried Noell, Jeremy Béguelin

Refractive microlenses are nowadays widely used in optical systems. Characterizing their surface is essential to ensure their quality and to optimize their fabrication process. This is realized by optical surface profilers thanks to their vertical resoluti ...

Time-lapse high-resolution microscopy to study the morphogenesis of microorganisms

Mélanie Thérèse Marie Hannebelle

Mycobacterium tuberculosis, the etiological agent for the tuberculosis disease, is a bacterial pathogen thought to infect about a quarter of the global human population. It is the first cause of death among infectious diseases, and is most prevalent in low ...

Development of novel experimental and computational methods for three-dimensional coherent and super-resolution microscopy

Adrien Charles-François Raymond Descloux

Optical microscopy is one widely used tool to study cell functions and the interaction of molecules at a sub-cellular level. Optical microscopy techniques can be broadly divided into two categories: partially coherent and incoherent. Coherent microscopy te ...

Super-resolution optical imaging: A comparison

Martinus Gijs, Gergely Huszka

Overcoming the classical diffraction limit in optical microscopy is known to be achievable by a variety of far-field and near-field microscopy techniques. More recently, so-called micro-object-based optical super-resolution microscopy techniques have emerg ...

Black Lipid Membranes: Challenges in Simultaneous Quantitative Characterization by Electrophysiology and Fluorescence Microscopy

Esther Amstad, Stefan Matile, Maria Tsemperouli

Horizontal black lipid membranes (BLMs) enable optical microscopy to be combined with the electrophysiological measurements for studying ion channels, peptide pores, and ionophores. However, a careful literature review reveals that simultaneous fluorescenc ...
