Abstract: The disclosure relates to a method and an imaging device for multi-color imaging using frequency-modulated illumination. The method comprises a step of providing electromagnetic radiation with a plurality of different wavelengths, comprising a step of modulating each wavelength with a different modulation frequency, a step of illuminating a target with the modulated electromagnetic radiation, in particular for excitation of a target, a step of sensing electromagnetic radiation emitted from the target, in particular the luminescence, more in particular the fluorescence, and a step of processing the data obtained in the step of sensing.

Abstract: The present invention relates to methods for obtaining a calibration curve for quantifying protein copy number in immunofluorescence-based super resolution microscopy, for quantifying protein copy number in immunofluorescence-based super resolution microscopy and for determining the percentage of oligomeric state of a protein in a sample imaged with super-resolution microscopy. The invention also relates to a computer program and to a kits and uses thereof in the methods of the invention.

Abstract: The present invention relates to methods for detecting the chromatin state of a cell based on recording a super resolution image of nucleosome organization and correlating said imaged with size of nucleosomal clutches, nucleosomal density and/or number of nucleosomes per nucleosomal clutches. Additionally, the invention relates to a kit comprising a first antibody capable of specifically binding to a histone protein and a photoswitchable fluorophore linked-secondary antibody and the use of the kit of the invention for detecting the chromatin state of a cell and isolating a cell in an open chromatin state or in a closed chromatin state. The invention also relates to a device adapted to detect the chromatin state of a cell.
