Color-changing fluorescent dyes enable precise temperature measurements within living cells

Temperature is a critical variable that influences countless biological processes at the cellular level. However, precisely measuring temperatures within living cells remains challenging. Conventional temperature measurement techniques often lack the spatial resolution needed to detect subtle temperature variations in complex microscopic environments. Additionally, many existing molecular thermometers have significant limitations in terms of their sensitivity, resolution, and applicable targets, highlighting the need for innovative approaches and versatile tools. Temperature is a critical variable that influences countless biological processes at the cellular level.
