Stanford researchers have engineered yeast strains for de novo biosynthesis of tetrahydropapaverine (THP) and a semi-synthetic production of papaverine with high efficiency.
Researchers at Stanford have developed a probe, NIRDye812, which improves contrast between healthy and diseased tissues for fluorescence-guided cancer surgery applications.
Dr. Guillem Pratx and colleagues have developed a high-throughput single cell scintillation counting system that can sort cells on the basis of uptake of a small radiolabeled molecule.
This nanoparticle platform for electric field detection is the first inorganic platform to use both intensity and spectro-ratiometric (relative color change) readout for the determination of local electric fields in vitro, in vivo, and in situ.
Stanford researchers have invented a fully water-soluble, orange hydrazine sensor that can robustly quantify the toxin hydrazine in liquids such as drinking water, waste water (treated and untreated), and bodily fluids.
Researchers in Prof. Karl Deisseroth's laboratory have engineered a cytosolic, red genetically encoded calcium indicator (GECI) with high signal change at single cell resolution.
Researchers in Dr. Christina Smolke's lab have generated novel RNA aptamer sensors that can be used to regulate gene expression in response to the clinically relevant drug folinic acid.
Dr. Richard Zare and colleagues have developed an inexpensive, fast and simple method for treating polyethylene terephthalate (PET) blood collection tubes (BCTs) to remove bias and interference in various blood analysis procedures.
Researchers in Dr. Michael Lin's lab have developed a fluorescent voltage sensor for non-invasive optical monitoring of electrical events in living cells in vitro and in vivo.
