Ein Tropfen #Blut mit großem Potenzial: Forscher:innen des @leibnizipht.bsky.social entwickeln eine Diagnostikplattform, die #Impflücken & #Antibiotikaresistenzen in Minuten erkennt – eine mögliche Revolution für Routinechecks, so der MDR. www.mdr.de/wissen/mediz...
Geimpft oder nicht – ein Test verrät es innerhalb von Minuten | MDR.DE
Ein Tropfen Blut genügt und innerhalb von Minuten ist klar: Hier gibt es eine Impflücke. Ein neues Testverfahren aus Jena soll das ermöglichen. Das kann Leben retten.

📸 How do you capture life in motion?
Researchers from Osaka University, Leibniz IPHT and @uni-jena.de, have found a way: by freezing living cells with millisecond precision. A software from Jena adds spatial depth, turning frozen snapshots of life into vivid 3D views of dynamic cellular processes.
