National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST)’s Post

To accelerate biotechnology innovations, such as the development of lifesaving drug therapies, scientists strive to develop faster, more quantitative, and more widely available ways to observe biomolecules in living cells.       Now, for the first time ever, NIST scientists have developed a new method that captures clear images of biomolecules in single live cells using infrared (IR) transmission imaging.    The method has the potential to speed up advances in biomanufacturing, cell therapy development and drug development.    Learn more about the imaging technique in our news story: https://lnkd.in/eWWD-i4k   #Microscopy #Imaging #AnalyticalChemistry #Bioscience

NIST scientists have introduced a groundbreaking method using infrared (IR) transmission imaging to capture clear images of biomolecules in single live cells. This innovative approach promises to significantly accelerate biotechnology advancements, including drug therapies and cell therapy development. By providing a more detailed view of biomolecular interactions in real-time, this method could enhance biomanufacturing processes and speed up the development of lifesaving treatments.
