Bleaching-corrected fluorescence microspectroscopy with nanometer peak position resolution.
Fluorescence microspectroscopy (FMS) with environmentally sensitive dyes provides information about local molecular surroundings at microscopic spatial resolution. Until recently, only probes exhibiting large spectral shifts due to local changes have been used. For filter-based experimental systems, where signal at different wavelengths is acquired sequentially, photostability has been required...
متن کاملCoexistence of probe conformations in lipid phases-a polarized fluorescence microspectroscopy study.
Several well-established fluorescence methods depend on environment-sensitive probes that report about molecular properties of their local environment. For reliable interpretation of experiments, careful characterization of probes' behavior is required. In this study, bleaching-corrected polarized fluorescence microspectroscopy with nanometer spectral peak position resolution was applied to cha...
متن کاملSensitive and selective tumor imaging with novel and highly activatable fluorescence probes.
Selective and sensitive tumor imaging in vivo is one of the most requested methodologies in medical sciences. Although several imaging modalities have been developed including positron emission tomography (PET) and magnetic resonance (MR) imaging for the detection of tumors, none of these modalities can activate the signals upon being accumulated or uptaken to tumor sites. Among these modalitie...
متن کاملTip-enhanced fluorescence microscopy at 10 nanometer resolution.
We demonstrate unambiguously that the field enhancement near the apex of a laser-illuminated silicon tip decays according to a power law that is moderated by a single parameter characterizing the tip sharpness. Oscillating the probe in intermittent contact with a semiconductor nanocrystal strongly modulates the fluorescence excitation rate, providing robust optical contrast and enabling excelle...
متن کاملNanometer-resolution fluorescence electron microscopy (nano-EM) in cultured cells.
Nano-resolution fluorescence electron microscopy (nano-fEM) pinpoints the location of individual proteins in electron micrographs. Plastic sections are first imaged using a super-resolution fluorescence microscope and then imaged on an electron microscope. The two images are superimposed to correlate the position of labeled proteins relative to subcellular structures. Here, we describe the meth...
