If you were to use infrared (IR) transmission microscopy, you would appreciate its chemical quantification abilities—unless your object of study was a hydrated cell. In that case, you might complain ...

Lung tumors are divided into various types, such as small cell lung cancer, adenocarcinoma and squamous cell carcinoma. Many rare tumor types and sub-types also exist. This diversity hampers reliable ...

Diagnosis and management of atopic dermatitis, a type of eczema, are complicated by skin temperature fluctuations, unclear ...

IR laser imaging is finally being commercialized into smart analytical equipment. New applications continue to emerge and yield massive advantages, thanks to the direct combination with FT-IR ...

Microscopy techniques that incorporate mid-infrared (IR) illumination holds tremendous promise across a range of biomedical and industrial applications due to its unique biochemical specificity.

The landscape of modern structural firefighting and tactical rescue operations demands an unprecedented level of real-time data and visual clarity. When entering environments compromised by dense ...

A study published in the journal Optica demonstrates live plant imaging of several representative plant samples, including the biofuel crop sorghum. By employing a novel detector, researchers obtained ...

The glymphatic system facilitates fluid exchange in the central nervous system and clears dissolved wastes. This anatomically organized movement occurs primarily during sleep and is supported by ...

Scientists have developed a new type of “virtual” metasurface – capable of controlling light in ways traditional lenses can’t. Discover how this tunable technology could impact optics, microscopy, and ...

The prognosis and effective therapies differ based on the type of lung cancer. While it previously took several days to precisely determine the underlying mutation, a research team has been able to ...
