In a scientific first, researchers from Vanderbilt University and the University of California, San Diego, have generated a high-resolution metabolic "map" of how cells orchestrate glucose processing, ...

To print microscopic structures, scientists need to inject a liquid material called a photoresist into the cell. This special ...

Atomic-scale detail is now possible with photons, thanks to a cooled-down silver tip and a clever use of plasmonics.

Plants grow from something unexpected—carbon drawn in through tiny pores called stomata. At Stanford, researchers are studying how these structures form to understand plant growth.

Explosions heard after Iran launches missile strike on US base in Qatar 9 things you definitely shouldn’t cook in your air fryer Warning for millions of Aussies as 'double whammy' winter blast ...

Researchers at Helmholtz Munich and the Technical University of Munich have developed a new microscope that significantly improves how bioluminescent signals in living cells can be observed. The ...

Living plant cells regenerate their protective cell walls under a microscope, providing the first high-resolution time-lapse videos of the assembly process. The cell wall's primary component ...

Leiden physicists are helping Wageningen plant researchers to study unpredictable plant embryos. For this, they are using a novel two-photon fluorescence microscope, aided by a 30 thousand euro ZonMW ...

Although plant cell-based bioproduction has advanced considerably during the past several years, certain elements remain largely unexplored.

Reconstruction of a plant cell (xylem) with its cellulose fibers labeled red (left). The center reconstruction shows the orientation of each cellulose fiber, with orientation indicated by color.

A hybrid microscope allows scientists to simultaneously image the full 3D orientation and position of an ensemble of molecules, such as labeled proteins inside cells. The microscope combines ...

The human body is interconnected with cell-to-cell communication to orchestrate an effective immune response. Plant cells are organized in a rigid, static order resembling a brick wall due to their ...
