Dehydration of plant cells shoves nuclei rotation allowing for 3D phase-contrast tomography

Abstract Single-cell phase-contrast tomography promises to become decisive for studying 3D intracellular structures in biology. It involves probing cells with light at wide angles, which unfortunately requires complex systems. Here we show an intriguing concept based on an inherent natural process f...
