The field of fluorescent probes tailored for nitroreductase (NTR) detection and imaging has experienced significant advancements. These probes leverage the unique catalytic property of NTR, which ...

A team of researchers led by Prof. Jiang Changlong from the Hefei Institutes of Physical Science of the Chinese Academy of Sciences has developed a fast and simple way to detect harmful pesticide ...

Cancer is a universal issue that affects uncountably many people around the world. Many will turn to surgery in the hope that a surgeon will be able to completely remove a tumor, leaving healthy ...

Researchers are turning up the brightness on a group of fluorescent probes that are used to monitor biological activities of individual proteins in real-time. This latest advance enhances their ...

Probes used in life-cell fluorescence imaging must be able to penetrate cells and bind specifically to the protein of interest. Ideally, such probes also increase their fluorescence intensity when ...

Serotonin in depression is highly relevant in diagnosis, treatment, and drug development. To better study this area, a Chinese team has now developed a fluorescent probe for imaging processes that is ...

Researchers at Cornell University are working on improving the trial-and-error process that is implicated in finding effective molecules for drug delivery ...

White blood cells act as the first line of defense in the immune system and are often referred to as an army that protects our body. Neutrophils account for the largest portion (55-70%) of white blood ...
