After recent assembly of two new C-Trap™ systems, this week two new Acoustic Force Spectroscopy (AFS™) Modules were finished. The AFS™ Module can be used in combination with commercial inverted optical microscopes, allowing the user to manipulate hundreds of biomolecules … Continue Reading
Study using CTFM Published in Nature Communications
A new paper using the correlative optical tweezers-fluorescence microscopy (CTFM) technology has recently been published in Nature Communications. King, Peterman & Wuite show in “Unravelling the structural plasticity of stretched DNA under torsional constraint” that in torsionally constraint DNA concomitant … Continue Reading
Two More C-Trap™ Systems are Ready for Shipment
Last week the assembly of two new C-Trap™ systems was finished. We are really excited about the experiments the new users will be performing on the correlative optical tweezers and fluorescence microscopy system. Don’t want to miss out on LUMICKS’ … Continue Reading
CTFM Workshop at BIOCEV a Great Success
The latest workshop on correlative optical tweezers and fluorescence microscopy (CTFM) was a great success. On June 8 and 9 the participants joined the hands-on workshop and were updated on the latest developments on CTFM at BIOCEV in Prague. Interested … Continue Reading
AFS™ 2.0 Paper Published in Methods
The second paper on the Acoustic Force Spectroscopy (AFS™) technology has been published in Methods. In “Tuning the Music: Acoustic Force Spectroscopy (AFS) 2.0” Kamsma and his colleagues at VU University Amsterdam describe the latest developments on the technology. In … Continue Reading
