Imaging method that overcomes the performance and utility of imaging flow cytometry Kumar Jeetendra | June 14, 2020 A group headed by Hideharu Mikami from the University of Tokyo as of late decided an imaging technique dependent on optomechanics that conquers the exhibition and utility of imaging stream cytometry (IFC). The strategy empowers high throughput imaging of single cells going at >10,000 cells sec-1 without trading off affectability or goals and empowering strong …
Novel nanospectroscopy measures biomolecular changes induced by drugs in human cells Kumar Jeetendra | July 20, 2020 Synchrotron InfraRed Nanospectroscopy has been used for the first time to measure biomolecular changes caused by a drug (amiodarone) in human cells (macrophages) and localized at 100 nanometre scale, i.e. two orders of magnitude smaller than the IR wavelength used as probe. This was achieved at the Multimode InfraRed Imaging and Micro-Spectroscopy (MIRIAM) beamline (B22) …
World’s quickest UV camera records photons progressively Kumar Jeetendra | October 8, 2020 Compressed ultrafast photography (CUP) captures the whole process in real time and unparalleled resolution with only one click. The spatial and temporal information is compressed into a picture and then, with a reconstruction algorithm, it is converted into a movie. Developing a compact instrument for UV Until now, this technique was limited to visible and …

Biocompatible photooxygenation catalyst could be conceivably used to treat amyloid infections Kumar Jeetendra | November 26, 2020 The catalyst was able to oxygenate Aβ embedded beneath the skin of a living mouse, and diminished intact Aβ degree in AD-model mouse brain. The new catalyst is potentially useful for the treatment of peripheral amyloid diseases and AD. Toxic aggregation of amyloid peptide and protein is closely associated with a number of human diseases. …
CRISPR-based test could give fast, affordable testing to help control COVID-19 spread Kumar Jeetendra | December 7, 2020 Imagine swabbing your nostrils, putting the swab in a device, and obtaining a read-out on your mobile phone in 15 to 30 minutes which tells you if you’re infected with the COVID-19 virus. This has been the vision for a group of scientists at Gladstone Institutes, University of California, Berkeley (UC Berkeley), and University of …
A short-reduce in photosynthetic equipment can permit needles of pine bushes to live green Kumar Jeetendra | December 24, 2020 How do conifers which are used for example as Christmas trees keep their green needles over the boreal winter when many trees drop their leaves? Science hasn’t provided a good response to this question but now an international group of scientists, including researchers in Umeå University, has deciphered that a short-cut in the photosynthetic machinery …
New fluorescence microscopy strategy produces nanoscale 3D pictures of living cells Kumar Jeetendra | January 12, 2021 A new fluorescence microscopy technique has produced the world’s first nanoscale 3D images of molecules in a whole, living cell, researchers at KTH Royal Institute of Technology reported. Ilaria Testa, an associate professor at KTH and researcher at the Science for Life Laboratory, says the technique is capable of generating images with precision that until …
Protein alteration adds to degeneration of neuronal populaces in Huntington’s infection Kumar Jeetendra | February 1, 2021 A study in which UB scientists have taken part states that alterations in the levels of one of those proteins, lamin B1, add to the degeneration of distinct brain neuronal populations in Huntington’s disease. Caused by a mutation in the huntingtin gene, this pathology features involuntary movements, cognitive deficit, and psychiatric disorders, and has no …
Gene panel test empowers exceptionally exact diagnosis of liposarcomas Kumar Jeetendra | February 5, 2021 Scientists have leveraged the latest advances in RNA technology and machine learning methods to develop a gene panel evaluation which allows for highly accurate diagnosis of the most frequent kinds of liposarcoma. The new assay is described in The Journal of Molecular Diagnosis, published by Elsevier. Liposarcomas are a type of malignant cancer that is …
