Article Abstract

A high-resolution imaging system combining optical coherence tomography (OCT) and light sheet fluorescence microscopy (LSFM) was developed. LSFM confined the excitation to only the focal plane, removing the out of plane fluorescence. This enabled imaging a murine embryo with higher speed and specificity than traditional fluorescence microscopy. OCT gives information about the structure of the embryo from the same plane illuminated by LSFM. The co-planar OCT and LSFM instrument was capable of performing co-registered functional and structural imaging of mouse embryos simultaneously.

The development of multifunctional fluorescent organic materials capable of selective ion detection, subcellular targeting, and logical operations is a burgeoning area in chemical biology and materials science. Herein, we report the design and development of a novel acylhydrazone based fluorescent ligand (HSN·Cl), which exhibits a distinct "turn-on" emission response toward Zn ions and a subsequent "turn-off" response in the presence of sulfide ions (S). The molecular design incorporates structural elements that facilitate the ESIPT feature, conferring the probe with unique photophysical properties.

Indocyanine green (ICG) is a well-established near-infrared dye which has been used clinically for several decades. Recently, it has been utilised for fluorescence-guided surgery in a range of solid cancer types, including sarcoma, with the aim of reducing the positive margin rate. The increased uptake and retention of ICG within tumours, compared with normal tissue, gives surgeons a visual reference to aid resection when viewed through a near-infrared camera.

Background: Kaempferol (KAE), a bioactive flavonoid, has limited solubility and stability in water. Zein-gum arabic (GA) nanoparticles (NPs) are promising carriers for KAE, but the influence of preparation methods on their structure and properties remains unclear. This study investigated the effect of preparation method on the structure and properties of KAE-loaded zein-GA NPs.

On-Target Photoassembly of Pyronin Dyes for Super-Resolution Microscopy.

Controlled photoactivation is an auspicious and emerging approach in super-resolution microscopy, offering virtually zero background signal from the marker prior to activation. Pyronins are well-established fluorophores, but due to their inherent intercalating tendency towards nucleic acids, their use has been mostly avoided in super-resolution microscopy. Here, we describe a new class of diaryl ether and diaryl silane molecules that upon photoactivation close into fluorescent (silicon-)pyronins and term them Pyronin Upon Light Irradiation (PULI).
