Applications
Go Optical imaging has various applications, including optimizing permeabilization conditions, mapping cell nuclei, and analyzing protein and tissue morphology through fluorescence photography for subsequent bioinformatics analysis.
Permeabilization Optimalization
Imaging can help determine the optimal permeabilization time by assessing the strength of tissue fluorescence signals across different chips processed at varying time points.
Spatial Mapping of Cell Nuclei
Fluorescence photography enables the precise recording of
cell nuclei positions and tissue morphology for downstream
bioinformatics analysis. This allows for high-resolution
visualization of cellular and tissue structures, facilitating
advanced techniques such as spatial mapping and
transcriptomic profiling.
