Photobleaching by Spectralis Fixation Target [PDF]
The aim of this study is to determine whether the cross-shaped fixation target in a spectral-domain optical coherence tomography instrument (Spectralis; Heidelberg Engineering) could produce a cross-shaped increase fundus autofluorescence artifact on subsequent imaging.Thirty eyes of 15 healthy volunteers (8 women and 7 men; mean [SD] age 24 [3] years)

Fluorescent Membrane Probes Based on a Coumarin-Thiazole Scaffold
Biological functions of cell membranes and their correlation to the heterogeneity of the latter’s lipid composition are still poorly understood. Fluorescence provides one of the most versatile tools for studying biological membranes.

Fluorescein, and derivatives of fluorescein, are often used as fluorescent probes and sensors. In systems where pH is a variable, protonation/deprotonation of the molecule can influence the pertinent photophysics.

Factors influencing Barley Stripe Mosaic Virus-mediated gene silencing in wheat [PDF]
Virus induced gene silencing (VIGS) is a technology that has been used primarily to target the virus genome in infected plants. However, if the virus genome carries inserts derived from the host plant, the system could be employed to target the mRNAs ...

Photodegradation is a natural process that strongly affects the chromophoric fraction of dissolved organic matter (DOM), especially in surface water of the oceans. In the euphotic zone, the concentration and quality of DOM are mostly dependent on primary

Unbreakable codes in electrospun fibers : digitally encoded polymers to stop medicine counterfeiting [PDF]
Fluorescent polymer solutions can easily be electrospun into micrometer-sized fibers and subsequently encoded with long lasting digital codes by a photobleaching process.

Evaluating performance in three-dimensional fluorescence microscopy [PDF]
In biological fluorescence microscopy, image contrast is often degraded by a high background arising from out of focus regions of the specimen. This background can be greatly reduced or eliminated by several modes of thick specimen microscopy, including ...

A pharmacological cocktail for arresting actin dynamics in living cells. [PDF]
The actin cytoskeleton is regulated by factors that influence polymer assembly, disassembly, and network rearrangement. Drugs that inhibit these events have been used to test the role of actin dynamics in a wide range of cellular processes.

A petunia ethylene-responsive element binding factor, PhERF2, plays an important role in antiviral RNA silencing. [PDF]
Virus-induced RNA silencing is involved in plant antiviral defense and requires key enzyme components, including RNA-dependent RNA polymerases (RDRs), Dicer-like RNase III enzymes (DCLs), and Argonaute proteins (AGOs).

Solution-processed organic small molecule solar cells (SMSCs) have achieved efficiency over 11%. However, very few studies have focused on their stability under illumination and the origin of the degradation during the so-called burn-in period.
