Fluorescent nucleobases are chemically modified DNA and RNA analogues that not only retain their chemical and biological functionalities, such as stacking, base pairing and enzyme incorporation, but ...

For the first time, scientists have been able to watch the flu virus live as it infects human airway cells. They developed a ...

Thanks to a recent study by researchers at IOCB Prague, it is now possible to monitor processes in living cells more effectively than before, including responses to drugs and changes in cellular ...

The research was carried out by scientists at Indiana University and the University of Copenhagen, who set out to solve a 150-year-old problem involving fluorescent dyes. The problem is known as ...

Chemists have developed a tool for noninvasive brain imaging that can help illuminate hard-to-access structures and processes. Their small-molecule dye is the first of its kind that can cross the ...

Fluorescent nanobeads offer great potential for many applications in both basic and applied research. Recently, scientists have been offered a wide range of technical solutions in fluorescence imaging ...

A fluorescent light headache is a type of headache triggered by fluorescent lights. This may also be a symptom of photophobia, a condition that describes sensitivity to light. Fluorescent lights are ...

While there is an astounding variety of physical differences in wildlife that humans can easily observe, new research from Drexel University’s College of Arts and Sciences reveals that there is likely ...
