Quantitative phase imaging (QPI) has emerged as a valuable method for investigating cells
and tissues. QPI operates on unlabelled specimens and, as such, is complementary to …

Non-viral gene delivery vectors have lagged far behind viral ones in the current pipeline of
clinical trials of gene therapy nanomedicines. Even when non-viral nanovectors pose less …

The highly virulent Escherichia coli O104: H4 that caused the large 2011 outbreak of
diarrhoea and haemolytic uraemic syndrome secretes blended virulence factors of …

Label-free imaging uses inherent contrast mechanisms within cells to create image contrast
without introducing dyes/labels, which may confound results. Quantitative phase imaging is …

The potential of quantitative phase imaging (QPI) with digital holographic microscopy (DHM)
for quantification of cell culture quality was explored. Label‐free QPI of detached single cells …

MicroRNAs (miRNAs, micro ribonucleic acids) are pivotal post-transcriptional regulators of
gene expression. These endogenous small non-coding RNAs play significant roles in …

Background Anastomotic leakage (AL) remains the most dreaded complication after
colorectal surgery and causes high morbidity and mortality. The pathophysiology of AL …

Label-free quantitative in vitro imaging of living cell cultures with light microscopy is an
important tool for various research fields in the life sciences. Digital holographic microscopy …

Digital holographic cytometry (DHC) permits label-free visualization of adherent cells.
Dozens of cellular features can be derived from segmentation of hologram-derived images …

The gold-standard methods for anemia diagnosis are complete blood counts and peripheral-
smear observations. However, these do not allow for a complete differential diagnosis as …
