#Single unlabelled biomolecules can be detected through light Being able to track individual biomolecules and observe them at work is every biochemist's dream.
Their optical biosensor for single unlabelled molecules could also be a breakthrough in the development of biochips:
Our understanding of fundamental life processes was made first possible by knowledge of how individual biomolecules interact with each other.
Although light can be used to detect unlabelled biomolecules, the approach cannot be used to detect single DNA molecules,

Second, low energy electrons are harmless to biomolecules, "Longchamp said. In many conventional techniques such as transmission electron microscopy, the possible resolution is limited by high-energy electrons'radiation damage to biological samples.
Individual biomolecules are destroyed long before an image of high enough quality can be acquired. In other words, the low permissible electron dose in conventional microscopies is not sufficient to obtain high-resolution images from a single biomolecule.
However in low energy electron holography, the employed electron doses can be much higher--even after exposing fragile molecules like DNA or proteins to a electron dose more than five orders of magnitude higher
Sufficient electron dose in low energy electron holography makes imaging individual biomolecules at a nanometer resolution possible.
