Faster CARS, less damage: NIST chemical microscopy shows potential for cell diagnostics

Thursday, October 14, 2010 - 13:31 in Physics & Chemistry

Recent research may breathe new life into the use of a powerful -- but tricky -- diagnostic technique for cell biology. A new paper demonstrates that with improved hardware and better signal processing, a powerful form of molecular vibration spectroscopy can quickly deliver detailed molecular maps of the contents of cells without damaging them.
