Transcription Attenuation in Prokaryotes02:42

Transcription Attenuation in Prokaryotes

18.5K
Transcriptional attenuation occurs when RNA transcription is prematurely terminated due to the formation of a terminator mRNA hairpin structure.  Bacteria use these hairpins to regulate the transcription process and control the synthesis of several amino acids including histidine, lysine, threonine, and phenylalanine. Transcription attenuation takes place in the non-coding regions of mRNA.
There are several different mechanisms used to attenuate transcription. In ribosome mediated...

Distance Corrections01:15

Distance Corrections

290
To achieve precise distance measurements, especially in surveying and construction, certain corrections must be applied to account for potential sources of error like the standardization errors, temperature variations, and slope adjustments.Standardization error emerges when measurement equipment undergoes changes, such as wear, repairs, or weather impacts. To address this, surveyors compare the equipment’s readings to a standard. This process identifies any deviation that might lead to...

Confocal Fluorescence Microscopy01:16

Confocal Fluorescence Microscopy

21.1K
Confocal microscopy is an advanced microscopic technique. The prime advantage of the confocal microscope over other microscopy techniques is its ability to block the out-of-focus light from the illuminated samples using pinholes. It is widely used with fluorescence optics to obtain high-resolution, sharp contrast images. Unlike optical microscopes, confocal microscopes use a focused beam of light laser to scan the entire sample surface at different z-planes. These microscopes are, therefore,...

Power Factor Correction01:20

Power Factor Correction

539
The power transmission to a factory involves the transfer of apparent power, a combination of active and reactive power. The power factor measures how effectively electrical power is converted into useful work output. The ratio of the real power (KW) that does the work to the apparent power (KVA) supplied to the circuit.

Super-resolution Fluorescence Microscopy01:37

Super-resolution Fluorescence Microscopy

14.5K
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...

Area of Science:

  • Biomedical imaging
  • Optical microscopy
  • Mesoscopic imaging

Background:

  • Light sheet fluorescence microscopy (LSFM) is crucial for mesoscopic imaging of biological samples like embryos and organs.
  • LSFM is prone to optical artifacts, specifically "shadows," caused by light attenuation from absorbing materials within the sample.
  • Existing methods like scanning illumination and multi-view imaging do not fully resolve these artifacts in complex samples.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To introduce a novel hybrid imaging approach to correct LSFM shadow artifacts.
  • To leverage multi-modal integration of LSFM and optical projection tomography (OPT) for artifact reduction.

Main Methods:

  • Developed a hybrid instrument (OPTiSPIM) integrating LSFM and OPT.
  • Utilized OPT in transmission mode to generate a 3D map of optical attenuation within the sample.
  • Employed the quantified attenuation data to correct LSFM shadow artifacts.

Main Results:

  • Demonstrated the capability of the OPTiSPIM to quantify sample optical attenuation.
  • Successfully corrected LSFM shadow artifacts using the integrated OPT data.
  • Improved the quality of mesoscopic images by mitigating light attenuation issues.

Conclusions:

  • The hybrid OPTiSPIM instrument effectively corrects LSFM shadow artifacts.
  • Multi-modal integration of LSFM and OPT offers a robust solution for improving mesoscopic imaging.
  • This approach enhances the reliability and accuracy of imaging complex biological structures.
