Links to our past supplements appear below:
Manuscripts should be approximately 2,000-2,500 words long, plus figures and tables as needed, including an abstract of approximately 150-200 words. Applications articles should follow a standard experimental article format. Figures and tables, along with their captions, should appear at the end of the manuscript, and figures also must be sent as separate files, preferably in JPG, TIF, PNG, or XLS format. References should be called out using numbers in parentheses and listed at the end of the manuscript in numerical order.
Submissions from equipment manufacturers will be considered but must be devoid of promotional content; discussions of new technology should not focus on a specific manufacturer’s instrument.
Complete author guidelines are available at the following link:
Due date for abstract submission: May 19, 2014
Due date for completed articles: June 27, 2014
Suggested article length: ~2000–2500 words, plus figures and tables as needed
Where to submit: Send all proposals and completed articles to Editor Laura Bush, at [email protected] (tel. +1.732.346.3020).
Glucose Monitoring for Diabetes Using Non-Invasive Raman Spectroscopy
February 5th 2025Researchers at the Institute of Photonics and Photon-Technology, Northwest University, China, have described a non-invasive method for monitoring blood glucose using Raman spectroscopy. Their study, published in Spectrochimica Acta Part A: Molecular and Biomolecular Spectroscopy, explores the technique’s effectiveness in both animal models and human subjects, showing promise for future clinical applications.
Advancing Zebrafish Research: FT-IR Imaging Sheds Light on Tissue Preservation in Zebrafish
February 5th 2025Researchers at the University of Lublin and the Medical University of Lublin have demonstrated the first application of FT-IR imaging in zebrafish larvae, revealing that frozen samples better preserve tissue structure than chemical fixation.
