According to Dr. Chen, “we developed a nanoparticle-based therapeutic for treating osteoarthritis. Our nanoparticles have a unique nano-rod shape, enabling better penetration into articular cartilage compared to traditional spherical nanoparticles.

A little image I collected today using @LeicaMicro thunder @UConnALMF. I really love microscopy, especially the fluorescencent variety. The anterior portion of a whole mouse hind limb, look at that skin!

Double dipping on this same stellate trichome (left) for #microscopymonday! This image is using the @LeicaMicro Thunder K5C color camera and applying extended depth of focus. We also imaged part of the stem itself (right) and found other interesting structures!

This #FluorescenceFriday we bring you some fun #sciart of a "microscopic sunflower," found from a hibiscus sample! Captured using green and far red fluorescence (yellow and orange here, respectively) and DIC on our @LeicaMicro Thunder. Any #plantsci people able to ID this?

If you're a lab at @UConn or @UConnHealth there's still a few weeks left to apply for internal funds if you want to try out one of the UConn Core facilities!

@NikonInst The maximum intensity projection shows the quality much better! Chlorophyll are in green and magenta, and what we believe is the cell wall is in blue. If we see different secondary cell wall structures here, that would be fun!

The value of machine learning using @zeiss_arivis software for segmentation becomes clear in a sample with high dynamic range, such as this mitotic spindle (bottom). Most of the dimmer astral microtubules are lost with traditional segmentation algorithms (top).

More specifically, this protocol describes use of PKMO to resolve inner membrane dynamics with neuroblastoma model SH-SY5Y cells and primary rat hippocampal neurons, along with some example analyses. Enjoy!

Having fun with our new @NikonInst AXR confocal and using the NIS Elements movie maker function. This is a 3D reconstruction of the crypts in a mouse intestine section showing goblet cells (blue), nuclei (green), and actin (red).#confocal
