A team of researchers in Germany and Australia recently used a new microscopy technique to image nano-scale biological structures at a previously unmanageable resolution, without destroying the living ...

Infrared vibrational spectroscopy at BESSY II can be used to create high-resolution maps of molecules inside live cells and ...

Lipids are fatty molecules that play critical roles in cell function, including membrane structure, energy storage and ...

What does the inside of a cell really look like? In the past, standard microscopes were limited in how well they could answer this question. Now, researchers from the Universities of Göttingen and ...

There's a problem in cell biology research: to study what happens inside a cell, it has to be destroyed. When scientists use a traditional microscope to observe a cell, they use stains -- chemicals ...

A team of South Korean researchers has developed a new analytical technique to precisely distinguish proteins within the ...

Zhang You of the Entomological Society of China took first place with an image of a rice weevil—an agricultural pest—on a ...

Researchers in Göttingen, Germany, have elucidated the structure and function of otoferlin, a protein that plays a crucial ...

Main conclusion The investigations confirm the physicochemical nature of the structure and selfassembly of wood substance and endorse its application in plant species. The characteristic morphological ...
