  4. 2. Advances in Holographic Optical Trapping

    Author : Martin Persson; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Optical tweezers; Holographic optical trapping; Optical force measurement; Spatial light modulators; Holographic beam steering; Liquid crystals;

    Abstract : Holographic optical trapping (HOT) is a technique for non-invasive dynamic anipulation of multiple microscopic objects, which has been used for many applications in the life sciences during the past decade. The technique uses holographic beam steering with a spatial light modulator (SLM) to direct light to the desired positions of optical traps. READ MORE

  5. 3. Towards quantitative single cell analysis using optical tweezers and microfluidics

    Author : Emma Eriksson; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Optical tweezers; holographic optical tweezers; microfluidics; lab-on-a-chip; fluorescence microscopy; spatial light modulator; single cell analysis; quantitative systems biology; GFP; Saccharomyces cerevisiae;

    Abstract : Experiments on single cells have the potential to uncover information that would not be possible to obtain with traditional biological techniques, which only reflect the average behavior of a population of cells. In the averaging process, information regarding heterogeneity and cellular dynamics, that may give rise to a nondeterministic behavior at the population level, is lost. READ MORE

  6. 4. KNOW YOUR ENEMY : Characterizing Pathogenic Biomaterials Using Laser Tweezers
