BISCp6-47 Nanoscale three-dimensional imaging of biological tissue with X-ray holographic tomography Alexandra Pacureanu, Julio Caesar da Silva, Yang Yang, Sylvain Bohic, Peter Cloetens
European Synchrotron Radiation Facility, France
Enabling exploration of biological tissue in three-dimensions at sub-cellular scale is instrumental for advancing our understanding of biological systems and for finding better ways to cope with diseases. Over the last few years, remarkable advances in microscopy facilitated probing cells and tissues at the nanometer scale but many limitations are yet to be overcome. Here we present a novel technique which enables label-free volume imaging of biological tissue with pixel sizes down to 25 nm while maintaining extensive sample coverage. X-ray holographic nanotomography is a full-field 3D imaging technique which benefits from the deep penetration of X-rays and the powerful mechanism of phase contrast. By using cryogenic sample preservation, the tissue can be investigated close to the native state. The unprecedented data created by this technique opens new avenues in life sciences research.

A Partial Mueller matrix polarimeter retrieves a subset of sample polarization properties that can be useful for specific measurement. A partial Mueller matrix decomposition method is proposed to retrieve the optical rotation and depolarization simultaneously for measuring glucose concentration in the presence of scattering. A dual-photoelastic-modulator based Mueller matrix polarimeter is designed for this purpose. We verify the proposed decomposition method by measuring different glucose concentrations mixed with scattering particles.

The aim of this study is to provide an in situ method to non-invasively monitor osteoblastic collagen synthesis under mechanical stimulation. We applied second-harmonic-generation (SHG) microscopy to monitor the collagen fibers produced by osteoblast-like cells. To evaluate the influence of mechanical stimulation on collagen synthesis and maturation, we compared SHG images of osteoblast-produced collagen fibers with and without a cyclic stretch stimulus. We acquired SHG images every 7 days for 3 weeks at different stimulus conditions. Image analysis of the average SHG intensity indicated that the amount of osteoblastic collagen synthesis was significantly enhanced by the cyclic stretch compared with the the non-stretched condition, while there was no significant difference between the two stimulus conditions. Furthermore, the maturity of the collagen fibers was not affected in the early stage of bone formation by the mechanical stimulus.
