Abstract:
We demonstrate the three-dimensional (3D) imaging capabilities and chemical specificity of multiplex coherent anti-Stokes Raman scattering microscopy. The simultaneous acquisition of a significant part of the vibrational spectrum at each specimen position permits straightforward differentiation among chemical species. 3D imaging is illustrated with a lipid multilamellar vesicle, and lateral and axial resolutions are determined.

Three-dimensional imaging techniques are essential in cell biology, allowing researchers to visualize intricate cellular structures with high resolution. Two prominent methods, Differential Interference Contrast Microscopy (DIC) and Confocal Scanning Laser Microscopy (CSLM), provide distinct advantages for imaging live and thick specimens, respectively.Differential Interference Contrast MicroscopyDIC microscopy enhances contrast in transparent, unstained samples by converting phase...
01:37Super-resolution Fluorescence Microscopy
Super-resolution fluorescence microscopy (SRFM) provides a better resolution than conventional fluorescence microscopy by reducing the point spread function (PSF). PSF is the light intensity distribution from a point that causes it to appear blurred. Due to PSF, each fluorescing point appears bigger than its actual size, and it is the PSF interference of nearby fluorophores that causes the blurred image. Various approaches to achieving higher resolution through SRFM have recently been developed.
