Ciliates, a group of single-celled ciliated eukaryotes, have been studied since the dawn of light microscopy, with over 10,000 species described. Cilia are the key feature of ciliates and contribute ...

Pictor Labs, a pioneering UCLA spin-off from the renowned Ozcan Lab at the UCLA Samueli School of Engineering, has announced the successful closing of its $30 million Series B funding round. The ...

A combination of some clever ideas and trial and error over the years has since given rise to a collection of highly sensitive and effective protein gel staining ...

Researchers have developed a novel application of histological staining to screen for ancient proteins in situ—within the fossil's microstructure—advancing the field of paleoproteomics by addressing ...

Their results were comparable to conventional staining methods and an advanced, high-cost imaging method. "Essentially, we're trying to expand on these procedures with a stain-free alternative that ...

An appreciation of tissue complexity in disorders such as cancer has led researchers to develop multiplex immunohistochemistry methods (mIHC), where dozens of markers are assayed on a single slide.

Researchers at the University of California, San Diego have found an unusual ally in the quest to make cancer diagnosis faster, more accurate and more accessible worldwide: the Morpho butterfly. Known ...
