Two-Photon Holographic Microscopy to Study Neural Activity and Connectivity in a Mouse Model

Source: Kato, D. et. al., Evaluation and Manipulation of Neural Activity Using Two-Photon Holographic Microscopy. J. Vis. Exp. (2022)This video demonstrates the two-photon imaging technique combined with optogenetics using holographic microscopy. Using a spatial light modulator, this technique enables precise neuronal stimulation expressing the red-light-sensitive protein and calcium imaging with minimal photodamage. This approach provides insights into the functional connectivity and...

Digital Inline Holographic Microscopy (DIHM) of Weakly-scattering Subjects

The three-dimensional locations of weakly-scattering objects can be uniquely identified using digital inline holographic microscopy (DIHM), which involves a minor modification to a standard microscope. Our software uses a simple imaging heuristic coupled with Rayleigh-Sommerfeld back-propagation to yield the three-dimensional position and geometry of a microscopic phase...

Fine-tuning the Size and Minimizing the Noise of Solid-state Nanopores

A methodology for preparing solid-state nanopores in solution for biomolecular translocation experiments is presented. By applying short pulses of high electric fields, the nanopore diameter can be controllably enlarged with subnanometer precision and its electrical noise characteristics significantly improved. This procedure is performed in situ using standard laboratory equipment under experimental...

Construction of a High Resolution Microscope with Conventional and Holographic Optical Trapping Capabilities

The system described herein employs a traditional optical trap as well as an independent holographic optical trapping line, capable of creating and manipulating multiple traps. This allows for the creation of complex geometric arrangements of refractive particles while also permitting simultaneous high-speed, high-resolution measurements of the activity of biological...

Lensfree On-chip Tomographic Microscopy Employing Multi-angle Illumination and Pixel Super-resolution

Lensfree optical tomography is a three-dimensional microscopy technique that offers a spatial resolution of <1 μm × <1 μm × <3 μm in x, y and z dimensions, respectively, over a large imaging-volume of 15-100 mm3, which can be particularly useful for integration with lab-on-a-chip...
