Holotomography

Lipid Quantification

  • Label-free Lipid Quantification
    HT technology enables high-resolution 3D visualization and quantification of intracellular lipids without the need for labeling or staining, allowing accurate measurement of lipid content without disrupting the cellular environment.
  • Tracking Dynamic Changes Over Time
    HT allows for the tracking of the distribution and changes in lipid droplets over time, making it ideal for studying the dynamics of cellular lipid metabolism.
  • Detection of High Refractive Index (RI) Molecules
    HT accurately visualizes lipid droplets with high RI, distinguishing them from other cellular components without the need for fluorescence staining.
  • Ideal for In Vivo Lipid Metabolism Studies
    HT has significant potential for applications in cell biology, bioengineering, and the biofuels industry, offering rapid measurement of cellular lipid content, which is valuable for research in metabolic diseases and other fields.
  • Versatile Applications
    Beyond lipid droplets, HT can also be applied to study other high RI molecules, such as polymers, nanoparticles, and liposomes.
