Webinars

Two-part webinar to learn how submicron IR (O-PTIR) and Raman has been applied to characterize the co-localization of amyloid β aggregates with carotenoids in human brain tissues to help better understand Alzheimer’s Disease progression.

Please join Prof Oxana Klementieva, Lund University, in this webinar based on her publication to learn how typical IR spectra and chemical IR images, at submicron resolution were acquired without water interferences in the protein bands, on freshly prepared and hydrated biopsies, tissue slices, and living organisms without compromising sample viability and function.

Join Dr Yeran Bai, Dept of Molecular, Cellular and Developmental Biology, Uni California Santa Barbara, in this webinar to learn how submicron IR (O-PTIR) spectroscopy and imaging is being applied for the study of lipid metabolic heterogeneity in single cells, using novel IR tags, based on azide conjugated fatty acid precursors.

Please join us in this webinar to learn about recent research from the Davis Group, Yale University, on a critical metabolic process in live cells – de novo lipogenesis (DNL) using a new submicron IR microscopy technique based on Optical Photothermal IR Spectroscopy (O-PTIR).

Learn about how a research group is applying submicron IR (O-PTIR) with simultaneous Raman to the study of microbial communities, at the single cell level to explore inter-cell biochemical, metabolomic and anti-microbial resistance differences utilizing stable isotope labelling techniques.

Please join Dr Cassio Lima, Post Doc and Research Associate in Prof Roy Goodacre’s Laboratory for Bioanalytical Spectroscopy, University of Liverpool, UK, to hear about how, for the first time, IR micro-spectroscopy has been applied to single bacterial cells and with simultaneous Raman microscopy too!

Please join Prof Håvard J. Haugen to hear about how cutting edge analytical tools, including the breakthrough technique of Optical Photothermal Infrared (O-PTIR) spectroscopy is being used to characterise the biochemical structure of bone tissue and the bone-biomaterial interface in a new generation of biomimetic bone graft, where intrinsic disordered peptides are embedded into a degradable polymer resulting in improved

Join Dr Christoph Krafft, from the Leibniz Institute for Photonic Research, Jena, Germany to hear about his research across a wide range of life science applications from live cells, tissues to single cell bacteria using submicron Optical Photothermal Infrared (O-PTIR) spectroscopy.

In conjunction with Dr Mustafa Kansiz, who will present an initial overview of the technique with further life science (live cells, tissues and bacteria) application examples and Prof Oxana Klementieva who will detail her recent research publication on this topic, we are proud to present this cutting-edge webinar.

Asst Prof Rohith Reddy, will discuss how the combination of biochemically relevant molecular information along with morphology makes Mid-Infrared Spectroscopic Imaging (MIRSI) especially useful in medical applications such as cancer research. Early diagnosis of cancers, like ovarian cancer, is essential for improving survival.

In this webinar, Prof Peter Gardner (Manchester University, UK) will present results from their recent and first published study on live (and fixed) cell analysis with simultaneous submicron IR+Raman microscopy with wide spectral coverage using two pump lasers (QCL and OPO).

Life science applications of O-PTIR, from tissues to live cells and single cell bacteria. In this webinar, we will show how submicron simultaneous Optical-Photothermal IR (O-PTIR) spectroscopy and Raman microscopy (IR+Raman) is being used and published in life science applications, from tissues, to cells and even single bacterial cells.

In this webinar, we will show how, submicron simultaneous Optical-Photothermal IR (O-PTIR) spectroscopy and Raman microscopy (IR+Raman) is being used and published in life science applications, from tissues, to cells and even single bacterial cells.

Dr Oxana Klementieva and co-workers identifying amyloid-beta aggregates directly in neurons (neurites an dendritic spines) at the subcellular (submicron) level using Optical Photothermal Infrared (O-PTIR) imaging (mIRage submicron Infrared Microscope).

Professor Ji-Xin Cheng of Boston University Photonics Center, author of over 230 peer-reviewed papers, co-inventor of CARS microscopy and pioneer in the field of O-PTIR applied to life science systems, in conjunction with Dr Mustafa Kansiz, Director of Product Management at PSC are proud to present this webinar.
