Imaging Uses 'Photothermal Effect' to Peer into Living Cells
WEST LAFAYETTE, Ind., Sept. 28 -- Purdue University issued the following news release:
A new type of imaging technology uses the mid-infrared part of the spectrum and "thermal lensing" to visualize living cells and organisms, an innovation that could bring insights into drug delivery and cancer treatment.
"It's very important to be able to study and understand the chemistry of living systems for research into drug delivery and disease processes," . . .
