Accurate and Robust Measurement of Single-Molecule Fluorescence Spectral Heterogeneity

Abstract Understanding single-molecule fluorescence spectral heterogeneity (smFLUSH) is vital for developing new probes for multidimensional super-resolution microscopy and decoding nanoscopic environments. However, traditional analysis methods distort the data and fail to distin...

Proliferation of enterococci in sargassum can contribute towards sand and water quality impairment

Abstract The fecal indicator bacteria (FIB), enterococci, are used to evaluate the safety of beach waters and beach sands. The increasing quantities of the holopelagic macroalgae Sargassum fluitans and Sargassum natans (referring to herein as “sargassum”) along beaches that face...
