The typification of skeletal muscle fibers in oxidative or glycolytic has great importance, both for the area of histology and for the area of real-time diagnostic biomarker, notably in the sports area. The classical phenotyping analyses are performed by immunofluorescence microscopy, using compatible primary and secondary antibodies, being a high technical challenge, since it involves h…
SNOM or NSNOM (Near Field Scanning Optical Microscopy) is the only optical method (and therefore non-invasive) with super-resolution that allows resolving the interior of a molecule with nanoscale resolution. Because SNOM captures the near-field light distribution, the images do not present any out-of-focus light contributions, as in other optical imaging methods. A SNOM correlates the t…
The global increase in fungal resistance to conventional drugs demands for new cost-effective therapeutic approaches. Photodynamic inactivation (PDI) appears in this scenario as a non-invasive treatment option, which has shown good results in the eradication of bacteria, fungi and parasites, with the advantage of not selecting resistant microorganisms. PDI involves the use of a photosensi…
The Optical Coherence Tomography provides an image with spatial resolution of order of a few microns. This image provides information on depth structures present in scattering samples. An important feature of these images is the speckle pattern present in it resulting from light interference processes, which mostly is either neglected or subtracted from original images with goal of improv…

This innovative study proposes a pioneering methodology to unlock the secrets of amphibian skin glands, combining the power of three techniques: optical microscopy, confocal Raman spectroscopy and optical coherence tomography (OCT). With the main objective of accurately mapping the spatial distribution of cutaneous glands in two species of frogs, Rhinella icterica and Rhinella diptycha, a…
This study proposal is focused on the analysis of speckle fluctuations on Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT) signal intensity, aiming at exploiting its properties for flow analysis. This type of analysis has potential applications in the biomedical field for both, microfluidic device fabrication as well as diagnostic methods. The use of microfluidics in biomedical applications presents ad…
The Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT) is an interferometry-based diagnostic imaging technique that makes use of non-ionizing electromagnetic radiation. It is characterized as non-invasive, non-contact, high-resolution (few microns) and with good penetration depth (a few millimeters in biological tissues). For these characteristics, it stands out as an attractive technique for biological …
Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT) is a technique based on low coherence optical interferometry that produce cross sectional images of scattering material with high spatial resolution. The ability to perform OCT images of scattering materials and/or interfaces with different refractive indexes allows it to be used in the characterization of microfluidic devices consisting of microchannels…

Optical Coherent Tomography (OCT), as a non invasive and high resolution technique has wide biological application as a diagnostic tool, especially in ophthalmology. Recently, OCT adaptations for flowmetry using speckle have been reported in the literature, and our group at IPEN has developed a novel approach to this end. The group at Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) has also s…
