Chemists Focus on Probes, Biologists on Cells—But Who Talks about Probe-Cell Interactions? A Critical Account of the Suboptimal Reporting of Novel Fluorescent Imaging Probes, Using Lipid Droplet Stains as a Case Study

Chemists Focus on Probes, Biologists on Cells—But Who Talks about Probe-Cell Interactions? A Critical Account of the Suboptimal Reporting of Novel Fluorescent Imaging Probes, Using Lipid Droplet Stains as a Case Study

Many current reports in the scientific literature describe novel fluorescent probes intended to provide information on various structures or properties of live cells by using microscopic imaging. Unfortunately, many such reports fail to provide key information regarding the staining process. It is o...
