For the
current study, working in the CU Cancer Center Advanced Light
Microscopy Core, co-authors Dominik Stitch, PhD, and Radu Moldovan, PhD, implemented a new
technique known intravital multiphoton in vivo
microscopy that enabled the team to watch fluorescent - tagged liposomes in real - time after injection.
But
current super-resolution
microscopy techniques do not deliver spectral information, which is useful for scientists to understand the behavior of individual molecules, as well as to enable high - quality multicolor imaging of multiple targets.
To make their determination, researchers used a combination of analytical
techniques, including atom probe tomography, transmission electron
microscopy and electron beam induced
current.
Current standard
techniques to visualize, quantify, and characterize EVs are electron
microscopy, nanoparticle tracking analyses, and dynamic light scattering.
In the
current study, the researchers used high - affinity antibodies to «label» the cannabinoid receptors so they could be seen using various
microscopy techniques, including electron
microscopy, which allowed very detailed visualization at individual synapses, or gaps between nerve cells.
Her
current primary interest is the development of new super-resolution localisation
microscopy techniques, both through the development of optical systems and the creation of novel image analysis algorithms.
