Nanoparticles for live cell microscopy: A surface-enhanced Raman scattering perspective

Abstract Surface enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) nanoparticles are an attractive alternative to fluorescent probes for biological labeling because of their photostability and multiplexing capabilities. However, nanoparticle size, shape, and surface properties are known to affect nanoparticle-cell i...
