A new study introduces two yellow #fluorescent proteins—mGold2s and mGold2t—that are significantly more #photostable than commonly used alternatives such as mVenus and mCitrine. Using these new #YFPs, researchers were able to extend imaging durations across diverse modalities including widefield, total internal reflection fluorescence (#TIRF), super-resolution, single-molecule, and laser-scanning #confocal microscopy.

Plantaardige zeefdruk van rode kool 🌱🌿

In opdracht van gr8 agency ben ik voor Regio West-Brabant aan de slag gegaan met een 100% plantaardige zeefdruk. Ik heb zelf roze inkt weten te maken van lokale rode kool en met een chemische reactie tussen de kleurstof en baking soda maakte ik een gradient. Het papier is gemaakt met tomatenplant. Het was een uitdaging om mijn werk volledig duurzaam te maken met veel obstakels gaandeweg maar met een uniek eindproduct.

A research team developed a budget-friendly method for adapting confocal microscopes for Total Internal Reflection Fluorescence (#TIRF) microscopy. The paper presents “a simple and cost-effective method to build a #prism-based TIRF setup on a laser scanning confocal microscope. The setup is affordable, and users can use both #confocal and TIRF modes in the same setup with the same light source and optical components.” Learn more: https://ilphotonics.com/inexpensive-high-resolution-single-molecule-microscopy/

Drain fly embryo on Nikon Small World

Nikon Small World has announced the winners of this year’s photomicrography competition. My image of a drain fly embryo made it to the Images of Distinction category!

Interesting new #preprint about #tissueclearing and #lightsheet #microscopy in mouse ovaries. Complete with #napari-based deep-learning pipeline and detailed build instructions for 3D-printed sample chambers for solvent-cleared samples, so they can be viewed under a #confocal!

Confocal excitation

The pipetting marathon I went through the other day was worth it—the experiment worked! Now I get to image some exciting and colorful samples in the confocal microscope, and experience that thrill of seeing something for the first time, once again 🌈🔬
