Dr Kai Johnsson has been working in the area of super resolution imaging and has come up with some very useful fluorescent probes for glutamate, switchable flourophores for protein labeling, caged rhodamine derivates among other research on membrane biology. His group just showed another interesting probe that can go inside the membrane and can be…

There have been many ways that people use standards for fluorescence but the one big one that has been used in flow cytometry and imaging. The one area that has developed a lot is the use of plastic fluorescent beads as controls. There are obviously many companies that have developed that but the one company…

It is known that eyes of the common fly is a compound eye with multiple detectors and multiple lenses. It has always been thought that the 180 degree vision would be very useful and could be very high resolution. Though interesting to think about in terms of camera’s, it has been difficult to create multiple…

Luminescent phosphors have been used in biology and imaging for many applications. Interestingly, there is another application that has not been publicized as much. Scientists from Malaysia, Moldova and Russia have made unique persistent phosphors that last for many days and hours in tough environment below the ocean. These are originally made nearly 16 years…
