Real-time 3D single-molecule localization microscopy analysis using lookup tables.

Herein, we present a new algorithm for real-time analysis of 3D single molecule localization microscopy images with a small impact on fitting accuracy using lookup-tables with discrete xyz-positions. The algorithm realizes real-time visualization during acquisition. We demonstrate its performance on simulated and measured data.

STED lithography in microfluidics for 3D thrombocyte aggregation testing.

Three-dimensional photopolymerization techniques such as multiphoton polymerization lithography (MPL) and stimulated emission depletion (STED) lithography are powerful tools for fabricating structures in the sub-µm range. Combining these techniques with microfluidics enables us to broaden the range of their applications. In this study, we show a microfluidic device enhanced with MPL structures carrying STED-lithographically written nanoanchors that promote binding of the von Willebrand factor (vWF).
