Plant biology

Plant science constitutes a broad multidisciplinary field of study and always presents dynamic areas of science and technology. It describes a wide range of basic components that have been relevant in medicine, food production, and environmental science.

Studying plant structure and their vital processes requires identification and monitoring of key cellular components not only by traditional techniques but also by recent innovative methods and technologies.

Q-Phase is a label-free and non-destructive method for long-term monitoring and quantification of living tissues. This method can play a basic role in studying the structure, growth, reproduction, and diseases of plants.

Q-Phase can be used to investigate the growth of various plant structures in response to internal stimuli such as plant hormones and external stimuli such as temperature, chemicals, or plant viruses in addition to monitoring the effects of the genetic modifications.

LiveCodim

Visualization of biological processes in plant cells is crucial for a better understanding of their specific properties.

Studying their development through LiveCodim super-resolution microscopy represents a suitable solution as plant autofluorescence can be used.
