Article Abstract
We demonstrate high-resolution fluorescence microscopy based on a cyclic sequential multiphoton (CSM) process, which gives rise to fluorescence emission following a sequence of cyclic transitions between the bright and dark states of a fluorophore induced by pump and reverse light. By temporally modulating the reverse intensity, we can extract the fluorescence signal generated through the CSM process. We show that the demodulated fluorescence signal is nonlinearly proportional to the excitation intensities and it gives a higher spatial resolution than that of a confocal microscope.

J-Aggregates hold significant promise for high-resolution shortwave infrared (SWIR) imaging, yet achieving robust SWIR absorption and emission simultaneously has been hindered by hypsochromic shifts in absorption and emission quenching caused by undesirable H- and random aggregation. To address this, we developed highly fluorescent BODIPY J-aggregates exhibiting absorption and emission spanning 1000-1600 nm. A key innovation was the implementation of a zig-zag molecular design, which effectively suppressed H-aggregation and minimized intermolecular interactions, thereby enabling anti-quenching SWIR emission.

Background: Tissue clearing techniques combined with light-sheet fluorescence microscopy (LSFM) enable high-resolution 3D imaging of biological structures without physical sectioning. While widely used in neuroscience to determine brain architecture and connectomics, their application for spinal cord mapping remains more limited, posing challenges for studying demyelinating diseases like multiple sclerosis. Myelin visualization in cleared tissues is particularly difficult due to the lipid-removal nature of most clearing protocols, and alternative immunolabeling approaches failed to reach satisfying results.

Reported herein are long-lived, red-luminescent silver nanoclusters (AgNCs) protected by the small-molecule ligand thiolactic acid, which exhibit exceptional stability (shelf life exceeding three years, photostability ∼100%), water-solubility, and high biocompatibility, making them suitable for diverse applications such as sensing and live-cell imaging. The AgNCs display extremely sensitive (>2% K) temperature-dependent luminescence, monitored by a dual approach of changes in photoluminescence intensity and excited-state lifetime, enabling precise local thermal environment monitoring with a very high-resolution temperature sensing down to subdegree levels (<0.5 K).

However， conventional methods such as immunofixation electrophoresis （IFE） and western blotting （WB） suffer from complex workflows， time-consuming operations， and limited quantification capabilities owing to intricate staining and de-staining procedures. In addition， these traditional immunological detection methods require extensive manual handling and specialized expertise， while low levels of automation restrict their applicability to high-throughput or large-scale analysis scenarios.
