Surface-Enhanced Raman Scattering (SERS) Cytometry
Methods in Cell Biology(2011)
Abstract
Significant advances have been made in the preparation and applications of surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS)-active materials for biomolecular analysis. Bright signals, photostability, and narrow spectral features of SERS-active materials offer attractive advantages for cytometric analyses. However, SERS cytometry is still in an early stage of development, and advances in both instrumentation and reagents will be necessary to realize its full potential. In this chapter, we discuss the challenges of expanding the numbers of fluorescent labels that can be measured in cytometry, and introduce SERS tags with extremely narrow spectral peaks as an approach to make more efficient use of the optical spectrum and increase the number of parameters in cytometry.
