@spie.orgCan machine learning help count circulating cells more accurately?
A new study in #BiophotonicsDiscovery explores an ML-based approach for enumerating cells detected with diffuse optical methods, aiming to improve cell monitoring in #biophotonics applications: https://bit.ly/3TgocD4 đź’ˇ
@drelasvetla.bsky.socialFlash a tomato, kill the lights. It glows back — faintly. Triglia et al. 1998 read ripeness from that afterglow. But it's delayed luminescence, not spontaneous UPE: it needs prior light. The biophysics? Still unknown. Anyone replicating this on fruit? #biophotonics #foodscience #Science
@embiophysics.bsky.social1/3 Your mitochondria glow. The same chemistry that makes ATP also releases faint photons — and a 2011 model proposed those photons ride microtubules to the cell membrane and shift its voltage. Could cells signal with their own light? #academicsky #biophotonics #neuroskyence
@embiophysics.bsky.social1/3 Your cells glow — faintly. That light comes from reactive oxygen species, the same chemistry that damages DNA. Researchers call it ultra-weak photon emission, and it may be a free, non-invasive readout of oxidative stress. #academicsky #biophotonics #sciart

@embiophysics.bsky.social1/3 Your cells can be hit by a 765 nm laser and make singlet oxygen — no dye, no photosensitizer, just oxygen itself absorbing the light. How is that even possible? #academicsky #biophotonics #sciwri

@informaq.bsky.socialLanthanide UCNPs generate beat frequencies under modulated excitation, enabling lock-in detection that eliminates residual laser light and ambient noise—improving signal-to-background ratios for bioimaging without specialized high-speed cameras.
