Adaptive optics for fluorescence wide-field microscopy using spectrally independent guide star and markers.

abstract：:Using single-molecule microscopy, we present a method to quantify the number of single autofluorescent proteins when they cannot be optically resolved. This method relies on the measurement of the total intensity emitted by each aggregate until it photobleaches. This strategy overcomes the inherent problem of blinking...
