Evanescent field (EF) fluorescence microscopy (also called total internal reflection fluorescence microscopy) is uniquely suited to image the plasma membrane with its associated organelles and ...

It has been found that the establishment and maintenance of polarity is governed by the interdependent relationship between the polarity marker protein on the plasma membrane (cell membrane ...

Under a traditional, light-based microscope, it’s impossible to ... proteins on the plasma membrane, and even proteins at the synapses in the brain. “For many biological experiments, it ...

Researchers from the Göttingen Cluster of Excellence Multiscale Bioimaging (MBExC) have uncovered the 3D structure of the ...

Researchers at The Scripps Research Institute have solved one of biology's neatest little tricks: they have discovered how a cell's outer membrane ... in real time under a light microscope ...

All cells have an outer plasma membrane that regulates ... bound to other proteins in the membrane. Some peripheral proteins form a filamentous network just under the membrane that provides ...

Fluorescent dyes that light up under the microscope's laser beam were used to label different membrane phases either red or blue. The researchers found that, depending on the temperature ...

Scientists have used cryo-electron microscopy to observe how lipids and proteins at the plasma membrane interact ... which can then be observed under an electron microscope. The scientists used ...

A phopholipid bilayer membrane was prepared on a silicon wafer in an aqueous solution, and the atmospheric plasma was irradiated with a home-build dielectric barrier discharge (DBD) instrument.

A multidisciplinary team of researchers at McMaster University has discovered a structural feature of human bone that has never been studied before under ... a plasma focused ion beam microscope ...
