Fusion expression of bifunctional enzyme complex for luciferin-recycling to enhance the luminescence imaging (2018)
Journal Article
Sun, X., Tang, X., Wang, Q., Chen, P., Hill, P., Fang, B., & Xu, C. (2018). Fusion expression of bifunctional enzyme complex for luciferin-recycling to enhance the luminescence imaging. Journal of Photochemistry and Photobiology B: Biology, 185, 66-72. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jphotobiol.2018.05.024

Firefly luciferase (Fluc) has been widely used as a bioluminescent monitor. The ATP linear correlation and exogenous luciferin requirement make it useful in most of current imaging systems. However, the utility of this reporter was still limited by t... Read More about Fusion expression of bifunctional enzyme complex for luciferin-recycling to enhance the luminescence imaging.

Ultrasound-mediation of self-illuminating reporters improves imaging resolution in optically scattering media (2018)
Journal Article
Ahmad, J., Jayet, B., Hill, P. J., Mather, M. L., Dehghani, H., & Morgan, S. P. (in press). Ultrasound-mediation of self-illuminating reporters improves imaging resolution in optically scattering media. Biomedical Optics Express, 9(4), https://doi.org/10.1364/BOE.9.001664

In vivo imaging of self-illuminating bio-and chemiluminescent reporters is used to observe the physiology of small animals. However, strong light scattering by biological tissues results in poor spatial resolution of the optical imaging, which also d...
