#ALT#Cytomass Monitor: Measure the mass of living cells in real time

Cells tightly regulate their mass and volume during development and homeostasis. The Cytomass Monitor is able to measure the mass of even single adherent cells with 0.1% mass and 10 ms temporal resolution. Learn more about this ground breaking new research technology here.

KeysightImaging of Membrane Vesicle Trafficking Pathways
Membrane vesicle trafficking (also called cell trafficking) is the transport of cell products between subcellular components via membrane encapsulated vesicles, to and from the plasma membrane and other specific cell locations. Studying these pathways is challenging given the small size of the cellular components and the techniques required to image them. How do we overcome this challenge?

Malaria: A Force Shaping Blood Cell Evolution?
Malaria: A Force Shaping Blood Cell Evolution?It is often thought that roles in immune defense are confined to our white blood cells. However, the phagocytes, leukocytes, and macrophages, which circulate in our bloodstreams, are not the only cells playing defensive roles. What is often overlooked is the potential of red blood cells to defend from pathogenic invaders; notably the species of Plasmodium parasites that cause the blood-borne disease Malaria.
ATR-FTIR for Single Cell Analysis
ATR-FTIR for Single Cell AnalysisIn recent years, a selection of single-cell isolation techniques, such as: compartmentalization, micromanipulation, dilution, microfluidics, and flow cytometry, have been developed.
Uncovering new T cell regulatory processes could help treat autoimmune disease
Uncovering new T cell regulatory processes could help treat autoimmune diseaseOne of the important cells involved in the immune response is the T follicular helper (Tfh) cell. These are important in the normal process of antibody production following immunization, for instance. However, they are also abnormally increased in number in patients with autoimmune disease, such as systemic lupus erythematosus.
New technique for autonomous coordination of cell subpopulations
New technique for autonomous coordination of cell subpopulationsFor years, scientists have explored ways to alter the cells of microorganisms in efforts to improve how a wide range of products are made - including medicines, fuels, and even beer. By tapping into the world of metabolic engineering, researchers have also developed techniques to create "smart" bacteria capable of carrying out a multitude of functions that impact processes involved in drug delivery, digestion, and even water decontamination.
Synthetic cell intercepts and deciphers hidden messages of the immune system
Synthetic cell intercepts and deciphers hidden messages of the immune systemWhen immune cells detect harmful pathogens or cancer, they mobilize and coordinate a competent defense response. To do this effectively immune cells must communicate in a way that is tailored to the pathogenic insult. Consequently, the body's response to various health challenges depends on successful coordination among the cells of the immune system.
