To study this, Stawikowski and his team have developed novel fluorescent cholesterol probes (CNDs) designed to track cholesterol within cellular membranes. A new study, published in Scientific ...

Fluorescent probes are molecules that absorb light of a specific wavelength and emit light of a different, typically longer, wavelength (a process known as fluorescence), and are used to study ...

To develop the technology, the researchers built a sensor by embedding upconversion optical probes into three-dimensional ...

An engineered infrared fluorescent protein is the first member of a new class of genetically encodable probes, with special advantages over visible-wavelength fluorescent proteins for in vivo imaging.

Sustainable fluorescent tracers are revolutionizing molecular imaging, this state-of-the-art technology is advancing precision research, environmental awareness, and revolutionary biological ...
