Quantification of Internalized Silica Nanoparticles via STED Microscopy
The development of safe engineered nanoparticles (NPs) requires a detailed understanding of their interaction mechanisms on a cellular level. Therefore, quantification of NP internalization is crucial to predict the potential impact of intracellular NP doses, providing essential information for risk assessment as well as for drug delivery applications. In this study, the internalization of 25 n...
متن کاملSub-Abbe resolution: from STED microscopy to STED lithography
Commonly, in stimulated emission depletion (STED) fluorescence nanoscopy, light of a wavelength located at the red tail of the emission spectrum of the dye is used to shrink the effective fluorophore excitation volume and thus to obtain images with sub diffraction resolution. Here, we demonstrate that continuous wave (CW) STED nanoscopy is feasible using STED wavelengths located at the emission...
متن کاملSTED microscopy resolves nanoparticle assemblies
We demonstrate the ability of stimulated emission depletion (STED) microscopy, a far-field fluorescence imaging technique with diffraction-unlimited resolution, to reveal the spatial order of fluorescent nanoparticles. Unlike its confocal counterpart, here STED microscopy resolves the arrangements of densely packed 40 nm beads, supramolecular aggregates in a cell membrane, and colloidal nanopar...
متن کاملUsing STED and ELSM confocal microscopy for a better knowledge of fused silica polished glass interface.
Characteristics and nature of close surface defects existing in fused silica polished optical surfaces were explored. Samples were deliberately scratched using a modified polishing process in presence of different fluorescent dyes. Various techniques including Epi-fluorescence Laser Scanning Mode (ELSM) or STimulated Emission Depletion (STED) confocal microscopy were used to measure and quantif...
متن کاملResolution scaling in STED microscopy.
We undertake a comprehensive study of the inverse square root dependence of spatial resolution on the saturation factor in stimulated emission depletion (STED) microscopy and generalize it to account for various focal depletion patterns. We used an experimental platform featuring a high quality depletion pattern which results in operation close to the optimal optical performance. Its superior i...
