A few months ago, I've written about the most powerful microscope in the world which was able to display images at an incredible high-resolution of just 0.05 nanometer (or 50 picometers). It seems ...

The PicoRuler: Protein-based molecular rulers make it possible to test the optical resolution of the latest super-resolution microscopy methods on biomolecules in the sub-10-nanometre range under ...

A new microscopy method enables researchers to visualize the activity of the enzymes caspase-3 and alkaline phosphatase in various biological samples (Nat. Methods 2024, DOI: ...

The goal of mechanobiology is to develop a mechanical description of cells and their parts. Platelet clotting, for example, is an important biological process that can only be fully understood if a ...

Numerous gene expression assays have been developed in biology; however, quantitative fluorescence time-lapse microscopy (QFTM) is the only current method for monitoring gene expression in single ...
