Violacein as a genetically-controlled, enzymatically amplified and photobleaching-resistant chromophore for optoacoustic bacterial imaging
There is growing interest in genetically expressed reporters for in vivo studies of bacterial colonization in the context of infectious disease research, studies of the bacterial microbiome or cancer imaging and treatment. To empower non-invasive high-resolution bacterial tracking with deep tissue penetration, we herein use the genetically controlled biosynthesis of the deep-purple pigment Viol...
متن کاملBiological Applications of Bacterial Nano-Surface Layers : A Brief Overview
Surface layer as the outer protective coverage of bacteria and archaea are two-dimensional crystalline and symmetrical arrays of proteins that recently attract a lot of attention for biologist scientists. The surface layers of bacteria are usually 5 to 10 nm in diameter and represent highly porous protein lattices with uniform size and morphology with the pore sizes of 2 to 8 nm. The crucial an...
متن کاملIterative reconstruction algorithm for optoacoustic imaging.
Optoacoustic imaging is based on the generation of thermoelastic stress waves by heating an object in an optically heterogeneous medium with a short laser pulse. The stress waves contain information about the distribution of structures with preferential optical absorption. Detection of the waves with an array of broadband ultrasound detectors at the surface of the medium and applying a backproj...
متن کاملGold nano-smolder for biological tissue manipulation
Thanks to their unique optical and electromagnetic properties, noble-metal nanoparticles are proven very useful in many scientific fields, from nanotechnology to biology, including detection of cancer cells. Irradiated gold nanoparticles, as a nano-smolder could be widely used in biomedical contexts such as tumor therapy. Laser destruction of a cancerous tissue depends on thermal and physical p...
متن کاملBacterial membrane vesicles as novel nanosystems for drug delivery
Bacterial membrane vesicles (BMVs) are closed spherical nanostructures that are shed naturally and ubiquitously by most bacterial species both in vivo and in vitro. Researchers have elucidated their roles in long-distance transport of a wide array of cargoes, such as proteins, toxins, antigens, virulence factors, microbicidal agents and antibiotics. Given that these natural carriers are importa...
