Polarimetric response of second harmonic generation in microscopy of chiral fibrillar structures
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Abstract Polarimetric second harmonic generation (SHG) microscopy is employed to study partially oriented fibrillar structures. The polarimetric SHG parameters are influenced by three-dimensional (3D) configuration of C 6 symmetry fibrilar structures in the focal volume (voxel) of a microscope. The achiral and chiral susceptibility tensor components ratios (R and C, respectively) are extracted from the linear polarization-in polarization-out (PIPO) measurements. The analytical derivations along with the polarimetric SHG microscopy results obtained from rat tail tendon, rabbit cornea, pig cartilage and meso-tetra (4-sulfonatophenyl) porphine (TPPS 4 ) cylindrical aggregates demonstrate that SHG intensity is affected by parallel/antiparallel arrangements of the fibers, and R and C ratio values change by tilting the fibers out of image plane, as well as by crossing the fibers in 2D and 3D. The polarimetric microscopy results are consistent with the digital microscopy modeling of fibrillar structures. These results facilitate the interpretation of polarimetric SHG microscopy images in terms of 3D organization of fibrilar structures in each voxel of the samples. Statement of Significance Polarimetric second harmonic generation (SHG) microscopy is used to study partially oriented C 6 symmetry chiral fibrillar structures. The linear polarization-in polarization-out (PIPO) SHG imaging is performed on rat tail tendon, rabbit cornea, pig cartilage tissues and meso-tetra (4-sulfonatophenyl) porphine (TPPS 4 ) cylindrical aggregates. The study demonstrates that SHG intensity is affected by parallel/antiparallel arrangements of the fibers, and the achiral and chiral susceptibility component ratio values change by tilting the fibers out of image plane, as well as by crossing the fibers in 2D and 3D. The polarimetric microscopy results are consistent with the digital microscopy modeling of fibrillar structures. These results facilitate the interpretation of polarimetric SHG microscopy images in terms of 3D organization of fibrillar structures in each voxel of the samples.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
