Researchers at Stanford have developed new fluorescent sensors to detect and monitor gastrointestinal (GI) permeability. GI permeability can be correlated with the prognosis of GI disease, thus earlier detection may lead to better patient outcomes.
Stanford researchers at the Rao Lab have developed apoptosis imaging probes with an improved new molecular structure enabling high sensitivity and stability with better performance in vivo.
Transgenic mice carrying reporter genes are extremely useful tools in modern biomedical science to unravel various underlying molecular mechanisms crucial for normal development, as well as, disease progression.
Researchers at Stanford have developed a ferumoxytol-based dual-modality imaging probe that allows for long-term stem cell tracking through MRI and early diagnosis of cell apoptosis through simultaneous fluorescence imaging.
Stanford researchers have developed a simple and effective method to sort semiconducting from metallic single walled carbon nanotubes (SWNT). This scalable technique uses semiconducting polymers to wrap around individual semiconducting SWNTs dispersed in a solution.
Stanford researchers successfully purified highly enriched semiconducting single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWNT) free of any dispersing agent via an easy, fast and scalable method.
Stanford researchers have further developed a new technique for magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). The technique called hyperpolarized carbon-13 MRI dramatically increases the sensitivity for molecular processes.
