Airy castles in Small Methods
🔬 Exciting news! ✨ We published our cutting-edge method for precise micropatterning using silver nanorods. By harnessing laser-induced photosculpting and plasmonic interactions, we can create intricate 3D structures known as "Airy castles." 🏰 Discover the potential of these … Leer más acerca de Airy castles in Small Methods

Characterization of the first chloride-sensitive RFP!
Our group has identified and improved by rational mutagenesis the first chloride-sensitive red fluorescent protein (RFP). This protein presents a cis–trans isomerization of the chromophore that produces a dual emission band (green and red) with different chloride sensitivities, which allowed us … Leer más acerca de Characterization of the first chloride-sensitive RFP!
