Nanoscopy enables breaking down the light diffraction limit and reveals the nanostructures of objects being studied using light. In 2014, three scientists pioneered the development of nanoscopy and won the Nobel Prize in Chemistry. This recognized the achievement of the past twenty years in the field of nanoscopy. However, fluorescent probes used in the field of nanoscopy are still numbered. Here, we review the currently available four categories of probes and existing methods to improve the performance of probes.

We present results of Raman spectroscopic studies carried out on optically trapped red blood cells with Raman excitation wavelength in Q‐band region of the hemoglobin (Hb) absorption spectrum. The results obtained suggest that when exposed to the Raman excitation laser the RBCs get deoxygenated due to photo‐dissociation of oxygen from hemoglobin. For smaller exposure durations (5 s) the level of deoxygenation increases with an increase in power. However, for longer exposure durations the deoxygenated hemoglobin in the cells gets irreversibly oxidized to form a low spin ferric derivative of hemoglobin. The rate of oxidation depends upon the initial level of deoxygenation; higher the initial level of deoxygenation, higher is the rate of oxidation. However, the RBCs deoxygenated via oxygen deprivation (i.e. N2 purging) were found to be very stable against any laser induced effect. These observations suggests that in case of laser induced deoxygenation of RBCs the free oxygen generated by photo‐dissociation acts as the oxidizing agent and leads to oxidative damage of the RBCs.

SECTR is a novel multimodal imaging platform for combined volumetric optical coherence tomography (OCT) and en face spectrally encoded reflectometry (SER). The authors demonstrate three‐dimensional motion‐tracking with millisecond temporal and micron spatial resolution using complementary data from OCT and SER, and preliminary algorithms and results showing real‐time image aiming and multi‐volumetric mosaicking for reconstruction of wide‐field composites. The image shows a noninvasively imaged nine‐field mosaic of in vivo human retina and depth‐resolved visualization of tissue microstructures. Further details can be found in the article by Mohamed T. El‐Haddad, Ivan Bozic, and Yuankai K. Tao ( e201700268 )

The cyclic RGD (cRGD) peptide ligands of cells have become widely used for treating several cancers. We report a highly sensitive analysis of c(RGDfC) using surface enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS) using single dimer nanogap antennas in aqueous environment. Good agreement between characteristic peaks of the SERS and the Raman spectra of bulk c(RGDfC) with its peptide's constituents were observed. The exhibited blinking of the SERS spectra and synchronization of intensity fluctuations, suggest that the SERS spectra acquired from single dimer nanogap antennas was dominated by the spectrum of single to a few molecules. SERS spectra of c(RGDfC) could be used to detect at the nanoscale, the cells' transmembrane proteins binding to its ligand.

Trans‐scleral iontophoresis device was shown to be effective for in‐situ delivery of lutein to the retina of human donor eyes. After treatment, Resonance Raman Spectroscopy measurements demonstrated that lutein greatly enriched the inner sclera, choroid and retina. Clinical studies are going to prove if the methodology would be a valuable approach to enrich the human macular pigment and prevent local oxidative damage in patients at risk of AMD progression. Further details can be found in the article by Marco Lombardo et al. ( e201700095 ).

An integrated 4‐modality endoscopy system combining white light imaging, autofluorescence imaging, diffuse reflectance spectroscopy and Raman spectroscopy technologies was developed for in vivo endoscopic nasopharyngeal cancer detection. Both high diagnostic sensitivity (98.6%) and high specificity (95.1%) for differentiating cancer from normal tissue sites were achieved using this system combined with multivariate diagnostic algorithm, demonstrating great potential for improving real‐time, in vivo diagnosis of cancer at endoscopy. Further details can be found in the article by Duo Lin et al. ( e201700251 )

Quantitative laser‐induced breakdown spectroscopy (LIBS) is successfully used for in‐vitro analysis of early stage calcification in aortic valvular interstitial cells (VICs). LIBS results indicate 5‐fold improvement in the detection limit of calcium deposition in VICs over cell histology techniques involving staining and colorimetric calcium assays. These results can establish LIBS at the forefront of early detection of calcification in VICs for pathological studies on Calcific Aortic Valve Disease (CAVD). Further details can be found in the article by Seyyed Ali Davari et al. ( e201600288 ).

The process of silicification in plants and the biochemical effects of silica in plant tissues are largely unknown. To study the molecular changes occurring in growing cells that are exposed to higher than normal concentration of silicic acid, Raman spectra of germinating pollen grains of three species (Pinus nigra, Picea omorika, and Camellia japonica) were analyzed in a multivariate classification approach that takes into account the variation of biochemical composition due to species, plant tissue structure, and germination condition. The results of principal component analyses of the Raman spectra indicate differences in the utilization of stored lipids, a changed mobilization of storage carbohydrates in the pollen grain bodies, and altered composition and/or structure of cellulose of the developing pollen tube cell walls. These biochemical changes vary in the different species.

Optical coherence tomography through an implanted dorsal imaging window allows for prolonged in vivo structural and functional assessment of the mouse oviduct (Fallopian tube), including threedimensional structural imaging, quantitative measurements of the smooth muscle contraction, and mapping of cilia beat frequency. This method brings new opportunities for live studies and longitudinal analyses of mouse reproductive events in the native context. Further details can be found in the article by Shang Wang et al. ( e201700316 ).

In this study, Raman microspectroscopy has been utilized to identify mycobacteria to the species level. Because of the slow growth of mycobacteria, the per se cultivation‐independent Raman microspectroscopy emerges as a perfect tool for a rapid on‐the‐spot mycobacterial diagnostic test. Special focus was laid upon the identification of Mycobacterium tuberculosis complex (MTC) strains, as the main causative agent of pulmonary tuberculosis worldwide, and the differentiation between pathogenic and commensal nontuberculous mycobacteria (NTM). Overall the proposed model considers 26 different mycobacteria species as well as antibiotic susceptible and resistant strains. More than 8800 Raman spectra of single bacterial cells constituted a spectral library, which was the foundation for a two‐level classification system including three support vector machines. Our model allowed the discrimination of MTC samples in an independent validation dataset with an accuracy of 94% and could serve as a basis to further improve Raman microscopy as a first‐line diagnostic point‐of‐care tool for the confirmation of tuberculosis disease.

Tissue autofluorescence provides fluorescence lifetime contrast between acellular tissue and that containing newly seeded cells. Fiber‐based fluorescence lifetime imaging (FLIm) can be used for tracking recellularization of engineered vascular grafts and potential matrix remodeling at large scale, without compromising sample integrity. FLIm cellular contrast was verified in a subset of samples seeded with eGFP‐labelled cells. Results suggests fiberbased FLIm is a suitable tool for monitoring recellularization of engineered tissue nondestructively.

Clinical cancer treatment aims to target all cell subpopulations within a tumor. Autofluorescence microscopy of the metabolic cofactors NAD(P)H and FAD has shown sensitivity to anti‐cancer treatment response. Alternatively, flow cytometry is attractive for high throughput analysis and flow sorting. This study measures cellular autofluorescence in three flow cytometry channels and applies cellular autofluorescence to sort a heterogeneous mixture of breast cancer cells into subpopulations enriched for each phenotype. Sorted cells were grown in culture and sorting was validated by morphology, autofluorescence microscopy, and receptor expression. Ultimately, this method could be applied to improve drug development and personalized treatment planning.

A hyperspectral image data cube acquired from HEK‐293 cells labeled with cytoplasmic and nuclear stains: Calcein Green and NucBlu. The top view (XY plane) displays three spectrally unmixed channels for cellular autofluorescence (red), Calcein Green (green), and NucBlue (blue). The Z axis shows spectral information, from low to high wavelength. The article by Leavesley and colleagues describes an approach for calculating the sensitivity of spectral imaging assays for detecting a fluorescence signature within a mix of other signatures or autofluorescence. Further details can be found in the article by Silas J. Leavesley et al. ( e201600227 ).

Semiconductor nanocomposites provide advantages beyond the capability of typical fluorescent materials for cancer detection. In this work, nanowire‐based probes with dual color channels are employed to demonstrate the capacity of cancer cell detection. Purple emitting ZnO/antibody probes are applied to detect cancer cells and meanwhile TiO2/antibody probes with green light emission are applied to identify normal fibroblast cells. A series of quantitative analyses are conducted to verify the correlation between the concentrations of ZnO and TiO2 probes, cell numbers, and peak intensities of the PL spectra. The results provide a quantitative reference for developing nanowire‐based cancel cell probes.

This study provides a simple method to detect human distal radius bone density based on near infrared (NIR) imaging. The information of bone mineral density can be measured by transluminational optical bone densitometric system. Compared to dual‐energy x‐ray absorptiometry (DXA) results in clinical trial, NIR images show a strong correlation to DXA.
