Video: Focal Ca2+ Transient Detection in Smooth Muscle
Transients are common in smooth muscle, yet are difficult to measure accurately because of the problems caused by their stochastic occurrence, over an often wide field of view, in an organ that it prone to contract. To overcome this problem, we've developed a series of imaging protocols and analysis routines to acquire and then analyse, in an automated fashion, the frequency, location and amplitude of such events. While this approach may be applied in other contexts, our own work involves the detection of local purinergic Ca transients allow the optical monitoring of neurotransmitter release in a manner that has many advantages over electrophysiology. Apart from the greatly improved spatial resolution, optical recording has the additional advantage of allowing the recording of transmitter release from many distinguishable sites simultaneously. Furthermore, the optical plane of focus is easier to maintain or correct during long recording series than is the repositioning of an intracellular sharp microelectrode.

Nikon Announces D4
Personally, I consider most of the new cameras released in the past few years as almost being niche cameras, that is, their capabilities are best utilized by photographers shooting specific genres or needing specific capabilities or... Great photographs are most often the products of incredible photographers. First, let me state that without having tried this camera out -- and I likely never will as I'm a Canon guy -- the Nikon D4 is probably an incredible piece of technology. If you're a sports photographer, for instance, cameras with big buffers capable of capturing images as fast or faster than a machine gun spits bullets might be perfect for you. Let me follow that statement by reminding everyone that great photos are not generally the products of incredible technologies....
Microsoft finally responds and publishes a codec pack designed for Windows Live Gallery 2011 (Photo Gallery Windows Live 2011 with us) that will allow you to view RAW files from 120 SLR market. While the number of software processing RAW files is growing year by year, Windows was clearly lagging behind and many had to choose a professional solution for storing their digital negatives as the duo Bridge + Photoshop CS5 or consumer software... Microsoft has released a pack of codecs that will allow 120 to view and process RAW files from DSLR and compact 120 experts directly in Windows 7 and Vista. Finally, Windows can view your RAW files....
Super-resolution microscope coming to a lab near you
26.11.11
Germany's Max Planck Society and the microscope maker Leica Microsystems have joined forces to commercialize a new technique to allow optical microscopes to look at even smaller objects than was previously possible. The sample is viewed through a confocal microscope, which uses a tiny aperture to ensure that light is only gathered from a very small part of the sample. This latest method is based on stimulated emission depletion (STED) microscopy, which is a technique for beating the diffraction limit that was first demonstrated more than a decade ago by Max Planck researcher Stefan Hell. However, it does have one major limitation: it cannot normally resolve objects smaller than about 200 nm, the so-called diffraction limit. A major breakthrough came about a decade ago when Hell and colleagues at the Max Planck Institute for Biophysical Chemistry in Göttingen, Germany, invented STED. The method involves fluorescence microscopy, whereby a molecule of interest is tagged with a dye that gives off light at a specific colour when illuminated with a spot of light.

These added capabilities greatly extend the usefulness of MS 1071 and MS 1171 Profiling Sonar and will be of particular interest to service companies engaged in Underwater Inspection and surveys of Underwater Infrastructure. The capability to produce detailed underwater 3D surveys was ably demonstrated by VRT of Finland’s recent engineering survey of bridges combining data from Kongsberg Underwater Inspection Systems and above water laser data. Data is post processed using one of a number of commercially available post processing packages, including Trimble RealWorks and Leica Cyclone. Kongsberg Mesotech unveiled the latest release of MS 1000 software for MS 1071 and MS 1171 Digital Scanning Sonar. 6 software) will produce much more detailed and precise underwater 3D data than the point cloud data typically seen. This version provides stunning high-resolution underwater records when combined with Kongsberg MS 1171 Profiling Sonar and precision rotators. Read the rest of this entry »

Panasonic Lumix LX-5. this was her first photoshoot since she lost her hair to an angry hair-stylist. it didn't really seem that there were any kind of crisis going on in the supply of photographic equipment. at least, the impression that I had received in Dhaka was shattered to pieces during the first several hours of my transient stay at KL. there was an abundance of camera and accessories in every store I looked into. that gave me strength to go for the LX-5. anyway, the LX-5 deserved some tryouts. had been thinking about it for a while now, but didn't really make progress for a lot of reasons. the market looked almost too pessimistic in Dhaka. the most important being the lack of supply in Dhaka....
