Instantaneous fluorescence polarization microscope Orientation of actin filaments - medium mp4

mages acquired with the instantaneous fluorescence polarization microscope (PNAS doi: ). At left, fluorescent particles move along treadmills of actin filaments in a human skin cell. The The mages were added along the polarization dimension to compute total fluorescence intensity. At right, orientation of actin filaments at the location of each fluorescent particle. The orientation was computed from polarization-resolved images and is shown by the magenta line. Credit: Shalin Mehta
