Correlative three-dimensional fluorescence and refractive index tomography: bridging the gap between molecular specificity and quantitative bioimaging.
Optical diffraction tomography (ODT) provides label-free three-dimensional (3D) refractive index (RI) measurement of biological samples. However, due to the nature of the RI values of biological specimens, ODT has limited access to molecular specific information. Here, we present an optical setup combining ODT with three-channel 3D fluorescence microscopy, to enhance the molecular specificity o...
متن کاملThree-dimensional correlative single-cell imaging utilizing fluorescence and refractive index tomography.
Cells alter the path of light, a fact that leads to well-known aberrations in single cell or tissue imaging. Optical diffraction tomography (ODT) measures the biophysical property that causes these aberrations, the refractive index (RI). ODT is complementary to fluorescence imaging and does not require any markers. The present study introduces RI and fluorescence tomography with optofluidic rot...
متن کاملQuantitative performance characterization of three-dimensional noncontact fluorescence molecular tomography.
Fluorescent proteins and dyes are routine tools for biological research to describe the behavior of genes, proteins, and cells, as well as more complex physiological dynamics such as vessel permeability and pharmacokinetics. The use of these probes in whole body in vivo imaging would allow extending the range and scope of current biomedical applications and would be of great interest. In order ...
متن کاملBridging the gap between qualitative and quantitative colocalization results in fluorescence microscopy studies
Quantitative colocalization studies suffer from the lack of unified approach to interpret obtained results. We developed a tool to characterize the results of colocalization experiments in a way so that they are understandable and comparable both qualitatively and quantitatively. Employing a fuzzy system model and computer simulation, we produced a set of just five linguistic variables tied to ...
متن کاملCorrelative fluorescence and electron microscopy on ultrathin cryosections: bridging the resolution gap.
Microscopy has become increasingly important for analysis of cells and cell function in recent years. This is due in large part to advances in light microscopy that facilitate quantitative studies and improve imaging of living cells. Analysis of fluorescence signals has often been a key feature in these advances. Such studies involve a number of techniques, including imaging of fluorescently la...
