The quality and application of super-resolution fluorescence imaging greatly lie in the dyes’ properties, including photostability, brightness, and Stokes shift. Here we report a synergistic strategy to simultaneously improve such properties of regular fluorophores for nanoscopy.

Color conversion layers (CCLs) are essential components of numerous contemporary display and lighting technologies. Organic nanomaterials are capable of very competitive performance in this context. We present a new approach to develop CCLs in light-emitting diodes using organic "nano-dots".

Bacteria display very different biochemistry from human cells, which can be exploited for designing new antibiotics with less side-effects. Detailed insights into the architecture and function of LptDE transporter complexes has been made possible by new Cryo-EM structures.

A 1-day homogeneous chemiluminescent screening protocol for specific hybridoma cells via a proximity-rolling circle activated enzymatic switch (P-RCAES) strategy has been developed. This CL assay enables the screening of specific hybridoma cells on conventional 96-well plate at single-cell level.
