Atomic force microscopy (AFM) has established itself as a decisive tool for probing nanoscale interactions, particularly adhesion forces and capillary phenomena. A precise understanding of these ...

Researchers used a two-photon phosphorescent probe to monitor capillary flux and oxygen in sets of capillaries, obtaining a robust oxygen and flux estimate within each capillary, sufficient to observe ...

The brain is perhaps the most sensitive organ with respect to changes in blood flow and oxygen supply. Even brief interruptions in capillary flow (or "stalling") can indicate acute neurological issues ...

Nonlinear sound-sheet microscopy.The ability to excite acoustic reporters one plane at a time enables molecular ultrasound imaging at the cellular and capillary scales. (i) In NSSM, the nonlinear ...

Optical-resolution photoacoustic microscopy is an up-and-coming biomedical imaging technique for studying a broad range of diseases, such as cancer, diabetes and stroke. But its insufficient ...

Researchers at Kanazawa University report in Analytical Chemistry how to produce nanopipettes that reliably provide nanoscale resolution scanning ion conductance microscopy images of living cells. New ...

(Nanowerk News) A nanoscale view of living cells can provide valuable insights into cell structure and function. Over the years, various microscopy techniques have been enrolled to obtain a window ...
