New Microscopy Method Breaks Color Barrier of Optical Imaging

Caption

Researchers at Columbia University developed a new optical microscopy platform called electronic pre-resonance stimulated Raman scattering (epr-SRS) microscopy that combines a high level of sensitivity and selectivity. The innovative technique allows for the imaging of up to 24 biomolecular structures at a time instead of being limited by only five fluorescent proteins.
