Multimodal CARS microscopy of structured carbohydrate biopolymers
We demonstrate the utility of multimodal coherent anti-Stokes Raman scattering (CARS) microscopy for the study of structured condensed carbohydrate systems. Simultaneous second-harmonic generation (SHG) and spectrally-scanned CARS microscopy was used to elucidate structure, alignment, and density in cellulose cotton fibers and in starch grains undergoing rapid heat-moisture swelling. Our result...
متن کاملImaging and quantitative analysis of atherosclerotic lesions by CARS-based multimodal nonlinear optical microscopy.
OBJECTIVE The purpose of this study was to assess the ability of label-free multimodal nonlinear optical (NLO) microscopy to characterize, and thus enable quantitative in situ analyses of, different atherosclerotic lesion types, according to the original scheme suggested by the AHA Committee. METHODS AND RESULTS Iliac arteries were taken from 24 male Ossabaw pigs divided into lean control and...
متن کاملBessel beam CARS of axially structured samples
We report about a Bessel beam CARS approach for axial profiling of multi-layer structures. This study presents an experimental implementation for the generation of CARS by Bessel beam excitation using only passive optical elements. Furthermore, an analytical expression is provided describing the generated anti-Stokes field by a homogeneous sample. Based on the concept of coherent transfer funct...
متن کاملWide-Field Detected Fourier Transform CARS Microscopy
We present a wide-field imaging implementation of Fourier transform coherent anti-Stokes Raman scattering (wide-field detected FT-CARS) microscopy capable of acquiring high-contrast label-free but chemically specific images over the full vibrational 'fingerprint' region, suitable for a large field of view. Rapid resonant mechanical scanning of the illumination beam coupled with highly sensitive...
متن کاملPhysicochemical and Immunomodulatory Properties of Gum Exudates Obtained from Astragalus myriacanthus and Some of Its Isolated Carbohydrate Biopolymers
Plants gums are complex mixtures of different polysaccharides with a variety of biological activities and pharmaceutical applications. Few studies have focused on physicochemical and biological properties of gums obtained from different plants. This study was designed to determine potential pharmaceutical and pharmacological values of the gum exudates and its isolated biopolymers obtained from ...
