Research Abstract |
Alkyne-tag Raman imaging was proposed as an approach for live cell imaging of small molecules by using an alkyne-tag. Structure-Raman shift/intensity relationships of various alkynes was examined by use of EdU as standard. On the basis of obtained results, simultaneous imaging of two alkyne-tagged molecules, EdU and alkyne-tagged CoQ analogue (AltQ), and semiquantitative estimation of cellular concentration of CoQ analogues have been achieved. Finally, simultaneous imaging of protonated and deprotonated carbonylcyanide p-trifluoromethoxyphenylhydrazone (FCCP) was successfully demonstrated.
