Strong investment in photonics will help us fight infectious diseases that kill an unimaginable number of people and prepare us against future pandemics, says Dr Jürgen Popp of the Leibniz Center for Photonics in Infection Research (LPI) that is currently under construction in Jena.
A new computational mass spectrometry imaging method enables researchers to achieve high mass resolution and high spatial resolution for biological samples while providing data sets significantly faster.
Mean accuracy can be improved by at least 25 % by modifying the combination of the aspects of the system.
Konica Minolta Sensing Europe BV has entered into a definitive agreement to acquire Specim.
The Smart-HSI project will develop compact hyperspectral imaging solutions to be used in space.
The mineral olivine, thought to be a major component inside all planetary bodies, holds secrets about the early formation of the solar system, and an IR spectral region can be used to study it remotely.
This review discusses three emerging applications in MSI—clinical, pre-clinical and forensics—and the roadblocks to the expansion of the use of MSI in these areas.
A team of scientists and students from the University of Sheffield has published the blueprints for a specialist single-molecule microscope they built for a tenth of the cost of commercially available equipment.
Researchers have developed a new imaging spectrometer that is much lighter and smaller than state-of-the-art instruments while maintaining the same high level of performance. Because of its small size and modular design, the new instrument has obvious applications to airborne vehicles and even planetary exploration missions.
Chinese customers of PicoQuant will benefit from a website in Chinese and a local presence.
Shimadzu opened a branch office in Denmark in September, providing local support.
University of South Australia scientists have used mass spectrometry imaging to identify signs of osteoarthritis.
The combination of Raman spectroscopy and stimulated Raman scattering microscopy is allow the metabolic processes within cancer cells to be probed.
Researchers combined AFM-IR and TERS to study the surfaces and interiors of viruses.
The French Chemometrics Society award is given in honour of the late Professor Jean-Pierre Huvenne for his early contribution to chemometrics in vibrational spectroscopy in France and is open to PhD students worldwide.
The mass of microplastics in the Atlantic Ocean has been significantly underestimated.
Synchrotron infrared nanospectroscopy has been used for the first time to measure biomolecular changes induced by a drug (amiodarone) within human cells (macrophages) and localised at 100 nm scale, i.e. two orders of magnitude smaller than the IR wavelength used as probe.
Researchers from the Nanooptics Group at CIC nanoGUNE (San Sebastian, Spain) have shown that nanoscale infrared imaging can analyse materials up to 100 nm below the surface.
A research programme is investigating the prognostic value of skin findings associated with COVID-19 infection using a portable hyperspectral imaging system.
