RSS feedWhat is Photomanipulation?
The term photomanipulation describes a wide range of techniques that enable the microscopist the transition from passive observer to instigator of events by offering a way of interacting with their…Read articleFRAP with TCS SP8 Resonant Scanner
Fast FRAP experiments need a sufficient number of measurement points for meaningful interpretation and fitting analysis. To study very fast translocational processes, the use of a resonant scanner…Read articleStep by Step Guide for FRAP Experiments
Fluorescence Recovery After Photobleaching (FRAP) has been considered the most widely applied method for observing translational diffusion processes of macromolecules. The resulting information can be…Read articleQuantitative Fluorescence
Seeing is believing – and measuring is knowing. Microscopes generate images that are not only used for illustration, but are also subject to quantification. More advanced techniques use illumination…Read articleLive-cell Imaging Techniques
The understanding of complex and/or fast cellular dynamics is an important step for exploring biological processes. Therefore, today’s life science research is increasingly focusing on dynamic…Read articleFluorescence Recovery after Photobleaching (FRAP) and its Offspring
FRAP (Fluorescence recovery after photobleaching) can be used to study cellular protein dynamics: For visualization the protein of interest is fused to a fluorescent protein or a fluorescent dye. A…Read articleFrom Molecules to Tissues
Cancer research using confocal and multiphoton microscopy. Sequencing of the human genome stimulated a radical change in the approach to biomedical research. The comprehension of the mechanisms…Read articleA New FRAP/FRAPa Method for Three-Dimensional Diffusion Measurements Based on Multiphoton Excitation Microscopy
Quantitative measurement method based on FRAP and FRAPa using multiphoton microscopy. We present a new convenient method for quantitative three-dimensionally resolved diffusion measurements based on…Read articleFluorescence Recovery after Photobleaching with the Leica TCS SP2
Among all photobleaching experiments which have been described, fluorescence recovery after photobleaching (FRAP) is the most popular. It employs irradiation of a fluorophore in a living sample with a…Read article
