Fluorescence lifetime imaging (FLIM) is a key fluorescence microscopy technique to map the
environment and interaction of fluorescent probes. It can report on photophysical events that …

Nanobiotechnology is one of the fastest growing and broadest‐ranged interdisciplinary
subfields of the nanosciences. Countless hybrid bio‐inorganic composites are currently …

Copper is an essential trace element in living organisms with its levels and localisation
being carefully managed by the cellular machinery. However, if misregulated, deficiency or …

Plants grown under iron (Fe)-deficient conditions induce a set of genes that enhance the
efficiency of Fe uptake by the roots. In Arabidopsis (Arabidopsis thaliana), the central …

Nutrient acquisition is entangled with growth and stress in sessile organisms. The bHLH
transcription factor FIT is a key regulator of Arabidopsis iron (Fe) acquisition and post …

Aims Recent advances in mass spectrometry have demonstrated that higher plants
discriminate stable Zn isotopes during uptake and translocation depending on …

Dicotyledonous plants growing under limited iron availability initiate a response resulting in
the solubilization, reduction, and uptake of soil iron. The protein factors responsible for these …

Fluorescence polarization (FP) has been applied in detecting chemicals and biomolecules
for early-stage diagnosis, food safety analyses, and environmental monitoring. Compared to …

Iron is a key transition element in the biosphere and is crucial for living organisms, although
its cellular excess can be deleterious. Maintaining the balance of optimal iron availability in …

Phosphate ions play important roles in signal transduction and energy storage in biological
systems. However, robust chemical sensors capable of real-time quantification of phosphate …
