Abstrakt: Track it down: A recognized surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) nanotag signal was monitored from a thin, dispersed layer of bisphosphonate-functionalized nanotags on a bone sample, through a 20 mm thick specimen of porcine muscle tissue by surface-enhanced spatial offset Raman spectroscopy (SESORS; see picture). The result demonstrates the great potential for non-invasive in vivo bisphosphonate drug tracking.
