This study demonstrates the potential of conforcal laser scanning microscopy (CLSM) as a characterization tool for different
types of microparticles. Microparticles were prepared by various methods including complex coacervation, spray drying, double
emulsion solvent evaporation technique, and ionotropic gelation. Protein drugs and particle wall polymers were covalently
labeled with a fluorescent marker prior to particle preparation, while low molecular weight drugs were labeled by mixing with
a fluorescent marker of similar solubility properties. As was demonstrated in several examples, CLSM allowed visualization
of the polymeric particle wall composition and detection of heterogeneous polymer distribution or changes in polymer matrix
composition under the influence of the drug. Furthermore, CLSM provides a method for three-dimensional reconstruction and
image analysis of the microparticles by imaging several coplanar sections throughout the object. In conclusion, CLSM allows
the inspection of internal particle structures without prior sample destruction. It can be used to localize the encapsulated
compounds and to detect special structural details of the particle wall composition. 相似文献

Summary The newly developed confocal scanning laser microscope, together with image processing by computer, has been used to obtain three-dimensional information on the organization of grana in chloroplasts in living plant tissue. Chloroplasts are ideally suited for such studies because their pigments show bright autofluorescence. The high-resolution stereo images bridge a gap between classic light microscopy and electron microscopy. Our preliminary observations on several plant species resemble most the early observations of Strugger (1951: Die Strukturordnung im Chloroplasten. Ber Deutsch Bot Ges 64: 69–83) and suggest that the 3-D technique might well be suitable to solve discrepancies in the interpretation of classical light microscopic and electron microscopic observations.Abbreviations 3-D

This study explored the feasibility of using immunofluorescence labelling in conjunction with confocal laser scanning microscopy (CLSM) for detection of common fungal colonisers of unseasoned radiata pine in New Zealand. Wood sections infected with Ophiostoma piceae were treated with monoclonal antibody IF3 (1), and then Oregon green 514 goat anti-mouse IgG, a fluorescent secondary antibody. Additional wood sections infected with other Ophiostoma spp., Sphaeropsis sapinea, Leptographium procerum, Trichoderma sp. and Phlebiopsis gigantea were treated similarly to determine whether the antibody was specific to O. piceae or was recognising other fungal species. Sections were examined using phase contrast and fluorescence light microscopy prior to CLSM. Immunolabelled fungal hyphae showed relatively weak fluorescence compared to the strong autofluorescence of wood cell walls and extractives. Labelled hyphae of O. piceae were detected in wood using CLSM but not with ordinary fluorescence microscopy. This is because CLSM has stronger illumination power and superior imaging ability compared with ordinary fluorescence microscopy. The monoclonal antibody did not cross-react with the other Ophiostoma species. However, non-specific antibody binding was observed with L. procerum and Trichoderma species. Furthermore, cell walls of L. procerum showed strong autofluorescence with optical properties similar to wood extractives when examined prior to incubation with the monoclonal and secondary antibody, therefore cross-reactivity tests were inconclusive for Leptographium and Trichoderma species. The current investigation demonstrated that CLSM provides possibilities for future investigations on in situ interactions of common radiata pine fungal colonisers, with one another and with wood. 相似文献

The transport kinetics of lanthanide species in a single erythrocyte probed by confocal laser scanning microscopy 总被引:6,自引:0,他引:6

A novel method has been developed to visualize and follow the temporal course of lanthanide transport across the membrane
into a single living erythrocyte. By means of confocal scanning microscopy and the optical section technique, the entry of
lanthanide ions was followed by the fluorescence quenching of fluorescein isothiocyanate (FITC)-labeled membrane and cytosol.
From the difference of the quenching kinetics of the whole section and the central area, the time for diffusion through the
membrane and the diffusion in the extracellular and intracellular media can be deduced. To clarify the mechanism of lanthanide-induced
fluorescence quenching of FITC-labeled erythrocytes and to ensure that this reaction can be used in this method, the reaction
was investigated by steady-state fluorescence techniques. The results showed that the lanthanides strongly quenched the florescence
emitted by FITC covalently bound to membrane proteins and cytosolic proteins. The static quenching mechanism is responsible
for the fluorescence quenching of FITC-labeled proteins by Ln species. The quenching mechanism is discussed on the basis of
complex formation. The dependence of fluorescence quenching on both ion size and the total orbital angular momentum L supports the complexation mechanism. The transport time across the membrane is strikingly correlated with Ln species and
extracellular concentration. For a given concentration, the transport time of [Ln(cit)2]3– is much shorter than that of Ln3+, since they enter the cells via the anion channel. This is supported by the inhibition effect of 4,4′-diisothiocyanato-2,2′-stilbenendisulfonate
on the transport of [Ln(cit)2]3–. On the other hand, the transport of free Ln3+ might be attributed to the enhanced permeability of erythrocytes owing to Ln3+ binding. These findings strongly demonstrate the existence of the non-internalization mechanism of Ln species uptake by erythrocytes.

Confocal laser scanning microscopy (CLSM) is a type of high-resolution fluorescence microscopy that overcomes the limitations of conventional widefield microscopy and facilitates the generation of high-resolution 3D images from relatively thick sections of tissue. As a comparatively non-destructive imaging technique, CLSM facilitates the in situ characterization of tissue microstructure. Images generated by CLSM have been utilized for the study of articular cartilage, bone, muscle, tendon, ligament and menisci by the foremost research groups in the field of orthopaedics including those teams headed by Bush, Errington, Guilak, Hall, Hunziker, Knight, Mow, Poole, Ratcliffe and White. Recent evolutions in techniques and technologies have facilitated a relatively widespread adoption of this imaging modality, with increased "user friendliness" and flexibility. Applications of CLSM also exist in the rapidly advancing field of orthopaedic implants and in the investigation of joint lubrication. 相似文献

Visualization of alginate-poly-L-lysine-alginate microcapsules by confocal laser scanning microscopy 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
Confocal laser scanning microscopy (CLSM) was used to study the distribution of polymers and cross-linking ions in alginate-poly-L-lysine (PLL) -alginate microcapsules made by fluorescent-labeled polymers. CLSM studies of Ca-alginate gel beads made in the presence and absence of non-gelling sodium ions revealed a more inhomogeneous distribution of alginate in beads formed in the absence of non-gelling ions. In the formation of alginate-PLL capsules, the polymer gradients in the preformed gel core were destabilized by the presence of non-gelling ions in the washing step and in the PLL solution. Ca-alginate gels preserved the inhomogeneous structure by exposure to ion-free solution in contrast to exposure to non-gelling ions (Na(+)). By exchanging Ca(2+) with Ba(2+) (10 mM), extremely inhomogeneous gel beads were formed that preserved their structure during the washing and exposure to PLL in saline. PLL was shown to bind at the very surface of the alginate core, forming a shell-like membrane. The thickness of the PLL-layer increased about 100% after 2 weeks of storage, but no further increase was seen after 2 years of storage. The coating alginate was shown to overlap the PLL layer. No difference in binding could be observed among coating alginates of different composition. This paper shows an easy and novel method to study the distribution of alginate and PLL in intact microcapsules. As the labeling procedures are easy to perform, the method can also be used for a variety of other polymers in other microencapsulation systems. 相似文献

Harringtonine (HT), a kind of anticancer drug isolated from Chinese herb-Cephalotaxus hainanensis Li, can induce apoptosis in promyelocytic leukemia HL-60 cells. With both two-photon laser scanning microscopy and confocal laser scanning microscopy in combination with the fluorescent probe Hoechst 33342, tetramethyrhodamine ethyl ester (TMRE) and Fluo 3-AM, we simultaneously observed HT-induced changes in nuclear morphology, mitochondrial membrane potential and intracellular calcium concentration ([Ca2+]i) in HL-60 cells, and developed a real-time, sensitive and invasive method for simultaneous multi-parameter observation of drug- treating living cells at the level of single cell. 相似文献

In recent years, confocal laser scanning microscopy has been developed into a non-invasive tool to probe intra-particle profiles
of protein in chromatographic adsorbents. A necessary prerequisite when using this technique lies in the labeling of proteins
with fluorescent probes. The quality of the obtained results is thus strongly dependent on the probes used, its sensitivity
on experimental parameters and the change of protein characteristics upon binding. In this review, the fundamental issues
when using fluorescent probes are described, before giving a critical evaluation on published literature in the field of confocal
laser scanning microscopy for the analysis of chromatographic principles. 相似文献

In the present study a new luminescent dye 3‐N‐(2‐pyrrolidinylacetamido)benzanthrone (AZR) was synthesized. Spectroscopic measurements of the novel benzanthrone 3‐aminoderivative were performed in seven organic solvents showing strong fluorescence. The capability of the prepared dye for visualization has been tested on flax, red clover and alfalfa to determinate the embryo in plant callus tissue cultures. Callus cells were stained with AZR and further analysed utilizing confocal laser scanning fluorescence microscopy. Performed experiments show high visualization effectiveness of newly synthesized fluorescent dye AZR that is efficient in fast and relatively inexpensive diagnostics of callus embryos that are problematic due to in vitro culture specificity. 相似文献

Apoplastic pH in corn root gravitropism: a laser scanning confocal microscopy measurement 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
The ability to measure the pH of the apoplast in situ is of special interest as a test of the cell wall acidification theory. Optical sectioning of living seedlings of corn roots using the laser scanning confocal microscope (LSCM) permits us to make pH measurements in living tissue. The pH of the apoplast of corn roots was measured by this method after infiltration with CI-NERF, a pH-sensitive dye, along with Texas Red Dextran 3000, a pH-insensitive dye, as an internal standard. In the elongation zone of corn roots, the mean apoplastic pH was 4.9. Upon gravitropic stimulation, the pH on the convex side of actively bending roots was 4.5. The lowering of the apoplastic pH by 0.4 units appears to be sufficient to account for the increased growth on that side. This technique provides site-specific evidence for the acid growth theory of cell elongation. The LSCM permits measurements of the pH of living tissues, and has a sensitivity of approximately 0.2 pH units. 相似文献

Confocal laser scanning microscopy, using fluorescently labelled oligonucleotide probes targeting the 16S rRNA of different physiological groups of methanogens, was used to identify which methanogenic genera were present and to describe their in situ spatial locations in samples taken at different depths from blanket peat bog cores. Total bacterial DNA was also extracted and purified from the samples and used as template for amplification of 16S rRNA and regions of methyl CoM reductase-encoding genes using the polymerase chain reaction, as well as for oligonucleotide hybridisation experiments. These techniques, used in concert, demonstrated that methanogens of several physiological groups were present in highest numbers in the mid regions of 25 cm deep peat cores. Some discrepancies were apparent in the findings of the microscopic and molecular methods, though these may be partially accounted for by the different sensitivities of the techniques employed. The combined approaches used in this study gave an insight into the diversity and distribution of methanogens in peat environments not possible using molecular ecological methods alone. 相似文献

In order to develop a method for use in investigations of spatial biomass distribution in solid-state fermentation systems, confocal scanning laser microscopy was used to determine the concentrations of aerial and penetrative biomass against height and depth above and below the substrate surface, during growth of Rhizopus oligosporus on potato dextrose agar. Penetrative hyphae had penetrated to a depth of 0.445 cm by 64 h and showed rhizoid morphology, in which the maximum biomass concentration, of 4.45 mg dry wt cm(-3), occurred at a depth of 0.075 cm. For aerial biomass the maximum density of 39.54 mg dry wt (-3) occurred at the substrate surface. For both aerial and penetrative biomass, there were two distinct regions in which the biomass concentration decayed exponentially with distance from the surface. For aerial biomass, the first exponential decay region was up to 0.1 cm height. The second region above the height of 0.1 cm corresponded to that in which sporangiophores dominated. This work lays the foundation for deeper studies into what controls the growth of fungal hyphae above and below the surfaces of solid substrates. 相似文献
