A Roadmap for LIMS at NIST Material Measurement Laboratory

April 11, 2022
Author(s)
Gretchen Greene, Jared Ragland, Zachary Trautt, June W. Lau, Raymond Plante, Joshua Taillon, Adam Abel Creuziger, Chandler A. Becker, Joe Bennett, Niksa Blonder, Lisa Borsuk, Carelyn E. Campbell, Adam Friss, Lucas Hale, Michael Halter, Robert Hanisch, Gary R. Hardin, Lyle E. Levine, Samantha Maragh, Sierra Miller, Chris Muzny, Marcus William Newrock, John Perkins, Anne L. Plant, Bruce D. Ravel, David J. Ross, John Henry J. Scott, Christopher Szakal, Alessandro Tona, Peter Vallone
Instrumentation generates data faster and in higher quantity than ever before, and interlaboratory research is in historic demand domestically and internationally to stimulate economic innovation. Strategic mission needs of the NIST Material Measurement

Accurate and Robust Trypan Blue-Based Cell Viability Measurement Using Neural Networks

July 19, 2021
Author(s)
Adele Peskin, Steven Lund, Chenyi Ling, Laura Pierce, Sumona Sarkar, Firdavs Kurbanov, Michael Halter, Joe Chalfoun, John T. Elliott
Trypan blue dye exclusion-based cell viability measurements are highly dependent upon image quality and consistency. In order to make measurements repeatable, one must be able to reliably capture images at a consistent focal plane, and with signal-to-noise

Probing Pluripotency Gene Regulatory Networks with Live Cell Imaging

September 20, 2020
Author(s)
Anne Plant, Michael Halter, Jeffrey R. Stinson
Live cell imaging uniquely enables the measurement of dynamic events in single cells, but it has not been used often in the study of gene regulatory networks. Network components can be examined in relation to one another by quantitative live cell imaging

A MULTIDIMENSIONAL LANDSCAPE MODEL FOR DETERMINING CELLULAR NETWORK THERMODYNAMICS

March 11, 2020
Author(s)
Joseph B. Hubbard, Michael W. Halter, Anne L. Plant
The distribution of phenotypic responses within an isogenic population of cells reflects the thermodynamics of a stationary state that results from coordinated intracellular reactions. The distribution of phenotypes is the result of both deterministic and

Large Field of View Quantitative Phase Imaging of Induced Pluripotent Stem Cells and Optical Pathlength Reference Materials

February 23, 2018
Author(s)
Edward J. Kwee, Alexander W. Peterson, Jeffrey R. Stinson, Michael W. Halter, Liya Yu, Michael P. Majurski, Joe Chalfoun, Peter Bajcsy, John T. Elliott
Induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) are reprogrammed cells that can have heterogeneous biological potential. Quality assurance metrics of reprogrammed iPSCs will be critical to ensure reliable use in cell therapies and personalized diagnostic tests. We

A novel measure and significance testing in data analysis of cell image segmentation

April 20, 2017
Author(s)
Jin Chu Wu, Michael W. Halter, Raghu N. Kacker, John T. Elliott, Anne L. Plant
Background: Cell image segmentation (CIS) is an essential part of quantitative imaging of biological cells. Designing a performance measure and conducting significance testing are critical for evaluating and comparing the CIS algorithms for image-based

Surface plasmon resonance microscopy: achieving a quantitative optical response

September 7, 2016
Author(s)
Alexander Peterson, Michael Halter, Anne Plant, John Elliott
Surface plasmon resonance imaging (SPRI) allows real-time label-free imaging based on index of refraction, and changes in index of refraction at an interface. SPRI can be carried out on a microscope by launching light into a sample, and collecting

Large-scale Time-lapse Microscopy of Oct4 Expression in Human Embryonic Stem Cell Colonies

May 22, 2016
Author(s)
Kiran Bhadriraju, Michael Halter, Julien M. Amelot, Peter Bajcsy, Joe Chalfoun, Antoine Vandecreme, Barbara Mallon, Kye-yoon Park, John T. Elliott, Subhash Sista, Anne L. Plant
Identification of critical characteristics of therapeutically active cells, and quantification of those characteristics, are essential for assuring consistency and potency of cell therapy products. We have developed image analysis and visualization
