Abstract
In this study, we integrate a single-photon detector array into a confocal laser scanning microscope, enabling the combination of fluorescence-lifetime single-molecule localization microscopy with image scanning microscopy. This unique combination delivers a twofold improvement in lateral localization accuracy for single-molecule localization microscopy (SMLM) and maintains its simplicity. Moreover, the addition of lifetime information from our confocal laser scanning microscope eliminates chromatic aberration, particularly crucial for achieving few-nanometre resolution in SMLM. Our approach, named fluorescence-lifetime image scanning microscopy SMLM, is demonstrated through direct stochastic optical reconstruction microscopy and DNA point accumulation for imaging in nanoscale topography experiments on fluorescently labelled cells, showcasing both resolution enhancement and fluorescence-lifetime multiplexing capabilities. The integration of a single-photon detector array and imaging scanning microscopy in a confocal scanning microscope enables doubling the resolution of single-molecule localization microscopy.
在这项研究中,我们将单光子探测器阵列集成到共聚焦激光扫描显微镜中,实现了荧光-寿命单分子定位显微镜与图像扫描显微镜的结合。这种独特的组合使单分子定位显微镜(SMLM)的横向定位精度提高了两倍,并保持了其简便性。此外,共焦激光扫描显微镜提供的寿命信息消除了色差,这对实现单分子定位显微镜的几纳米分辨率尤为重要。我们的方法被命名为荧光-寿命图像扫描显微镜 SMLM,它通过直接随机光学重建显微镜和 DNA 点积累技术在荧光标记细胞的纳米级形貌实验中进行成像,展示了分辨率增强和荧光-寿命多路复用能力。
