Analysis of bacteriophage-host interaction by Raman tweezers

Bacteriophages, or “phages” for short, are viruses that replicate in bacteria. The therapeutic and biotechnological potential of phages and their lytic enzymes is of interest for their ability to selectively...

Chip-based duplex real-time PCR for water quality monitoring concerning Legionella pneumophila and Legionella spp.

Based on biomolecular methods, rapid and selective identification of human pathogenic water organisms becomes an important issue. Legionella spp., are pathogenic water bacteria with worldwide significance....

Nondestructive 3D Imaging and Quantification of Hydrated Biofilm Matrix by Confocal Raman Microscopy Coupled with Non-Negative Matrix Factorization

Removal of Repetitive Magnetic Interferences Upon Unshielded Fetal Magnetocardiograms

Fetal magnetocardiograms are highly sensitive to interferences in unshielded environments, the measurements being realized indirectly. We aimed at removing repetitive deterministic interferences, applying...

Eosinophils and Neutrophils—Molecular Differences Revealed by Spontaneous Raman, CARS and Fluorescence Microscopy

Leukocytes are a part of the immune system that plays an important role in the host’s defense against viral, bacterial, and fungal infections. Among the human leukocytes, two granulocytes, neutrophils...

Biophotonic Technologies for Assessment of Breast Tumor Surgical Margins – a Review

Breast conserving surgery (BCS) offering similar surgical outcomes as mastectomy while retaining breast cosmesis is becoming increasingly popular for the management of early stage breast cancers. However,...

Simple and Rapid Peptide Nanoprobe Biosensor for the Detection of Legionellaceae as Prototype Field Diagnostic Tool

Near infrared (NIR) imaging of the human retinal pigment epithelium (RPE) using super-resolution structured illumination microscopy

Purpose : Histologically, three major granule types with distinct autofluorescence (AF) properties are found within the cell bodies of human RPE: lipofuscin (L), melanolipofuscin (ML), and melanosomes...

Fiber-based Stray light Suppression in Spectroscopy using periodic shadowing

Stray light is a known strong interference in spectroscopic measurements. Photons from high-intensity signals that are scattered inside the spectrometer, or photons that enter the detector through unintended...

Laser Spectroscopic Technique for Direct Identification of a Single Virus I: FASTER CARS

From the famous 1918 H1N1 influenza to the present COVID-19 pandemic, the need for improved viral detection techniques is all too apparent. The aim of the present paper is to show that identification of...
