In a new study, researchers made the skin on the skulls and abdomens of live mice transparent by applying to the areas a ...

We describe a simple illumination method of fluorescence microscopy for molecular imaging. Illumination by a highly inclined and thin beam increases image intensity and decreases background ...

Related research has focused on using already transparent materials that absorb into the skin, including glycerol and fructose solution. Those molecules can also reduce light scattering but are ...

In this week’s Science for All newsletter, Manaswini Vijayakumar breaks down an experiment that allowed scientists to see the 3D shapes of biological molecules roughly 100- to 1,000-times more dilute ...

For example, if 1 fM of protein in 0.1 mL (60,000 molecules) is captured and labeled on 500,000 beads, then 12 % of the beads will carry one protein molecule, and 88 % will not carry any protein ...

A University at Buffalo-led research team has developed molecules that could help unclog thick, sticky mucus from the lungs of people suffering from cystic fibrosis. The chronic disease is caused by a ...
