In the field of in vivo imaging, fluorescent dyes are primarily categorized into water-soluble dyes, lipid-soluble dyes, near-infrared I (NIR-I) dyes, and near-infrared II (NIR-II) dyes. The choice of dye directly affects imaging depth, resolution, signal-to-noise ratio, and biocompatibility. A systematic comparison of these four types of fluorescent dyes is...

In cell staining techniques, the fundamental differences in staining the three structures—the nucleus, the cytoplasm, and the cell membrane—lie in the staining target, the physicochemical principles utilized, and the morphological significance ultimately observed under the microscope. 1. Nuclear Staining: Targeting Genetic Material Target and Principle: The staining target is deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) within the nucleus....
