Scientists Examine First-of-its-Kind “Living” Nanomaterial

A new kind of electron microscopy permits scientists to analyze nanoscale tubular materials when they are “alive” and forming liquids—a first-of-its-kind in the field. The new technique, known as variable temperature liquid-phase transmission electron microscopy (VT-LPTEM), was developed by multidisciplinary researchers at the University of Tennessee and Northwestern University, and allowed them to study these high-resolution dynamic, sensitive materials.

Researchers Use a Single Fluorophore to Simultaneously Image Different Molecules

In day-to-day life, blinking lights can be used for sending signals––for instance, that a car is about to turn. At present, tiny “blinkers” that show single molecules of RNA or protein within cells based on the duration and frequency of every flash have been devised by scientists.

New Type of Microscope Offers Possibilities for Drug Discovery

Using a new type of microscope, doctors may now be able to get a better idea of how safely and efficiently a pill will perform in the body. Researchers at Purdue University built the microscope founded on concepts of phase-contrast microscopy, which requires using optical devices to see membranes, molecules, or other nanoscale items that may be too translucent to distribute the light involved with conventional microscopes.
