Abstract

Engineering Engineering, Biomedical Imaging Science & Photographic Technology Optics Physical Sciences Science & Technology Technology
Digital holography microscopy (DHM) is an optical microscopy technique which allows recording non-invasively the phase shift induced by living cells with nanometric sensitivity. Here, we exploit the phase signal as an indicator of dry mass (related to the protein concentration). This parameter allows monitoring the protein production rate and its evolution during the cell cycle.
