Description

Description: The ADAPT-3D Refractive Index is a key component of the ADAPT-3D (Accelerated Deep Adaptable Processing of Tissue for 3-Dimensional Fluorescence Tissue Imaging) method. This innovative tissue clearing technique is designed to revolutionize 3D fluorescence imaging in biomedical research by enabling researchers to visualize biological tissues at unprecedented depths and clarity. The core principle behind ADAPT-3D, and many other tissue clearing methods, is refractive index matching (RIM). Light scatters when it passes through a material with varying refractive indices (the measure of how much light bends when entering a material). Biological tissues are inherently complex, with different components having different refractive indices, which leads to significant light scattering and limits the penetration depth and resolution of traditional microscopy. ADAPT-3D addresses this by immersing tissues in solutions that minimize the refraction of light, essentially making the tissue transparent. This allows light to penetrate deeper into the sample, enhancing the detection of fluorescent signals.
