3D Time-lapse Imaging and Quantification of Mitochondrial Dynamics

Theo Lasser, Antonio Lopez, Paul James Marchand, Jérôme Extermann, Miguel Sison, Amir Jean Nahas

We present a 3D time-lapse imaging method for monitoring mitochondrial dynamics in living HeLa cells based on photothermal optical coherence microscopy and using novel surface functionalization of gold nanoparticles. The biocompatible protein-based biopoly ...
