Thanks to a recent study by researchers at IOCB Prague, it is now possible to monitor processes in living cells more ...

Fluorescent probes targeting serum albumin have emerged as a pivotal tool in both clinical diagnostics and biomedical research. Owing to the ubiquitous presence of albumin in blood and urine, these ...

The field of fluorescent probes tailored for nitroreductase (NTR) detection and imaging has experienced significant advancements. These probes leverage the unique catalytic property of NTR, which ...

DNA, the genetic material compacted in chromosomes, stores information to regulate all the cell processes in the body. Two decades ago, in addition to the widely known Watson-Crick double helix model ...

Cells live and die by the presence of oxygen, and low-oxygen states often indicate disease. Bacterial biofilms and the cells in solid tumors, for example, are hypoxic—that is, have abnormally low ...

Diagnosing liver cancer may have just gotten more straightforward, thanks to a new probe that makes the affected tissue glow yellow. The fluorescent labeling compound—dubbed "Sialyl Lewis Yellow"—was ...

After more than a decade of developing fluorescent probes, a research team has now released the culmination of their years of work: A comprehensive collection of rhodamine-based dyes, the novel ...

Subtle cognitive decline in early Alzheimer’s disease is often indistinguishable from normal aging; as a result, the disease readily goes undiagnosed for two to three years after symptom onset. By ...

A research team develops a fluorescent molecular sensor for detecting bad cooking oils. The novel technology enables anyone to easily measure the cooked time for all kinds of cooking oils. How clean ...
