SERS mapping of nanoparticle labels in single cells using a microfluidic chip

Abstract

We report for the first time the time-resolved mapping of intracellular nanoparticle labels from within living cells retained in a microstructured trap using Raman spectroscopy. The methods employed here also demonstrate the ability to rapidly discriminate between cell populations containing different SERS labels.
