Abstract
Automated, unbiased methods of non-invasive cell monitoring able to deal with complex biological heterogeneity are fundamentally important for biomedical research. Label-free imaging provides information about endogenous autofluorescent metabolites, enzymes and cofactors. Our multispectral fluorescence imaging technique allows precise quantification of native fluorophores in cells and tissues. This study uses label-free multispectral analysis to extract different fluorophores and redox ratio from single cells (oocytes, cultured cancer cells) as well as blastocyst embryos. Additionally, we characterise the molecular composition, structure and functional status of ex vivo healthy bovine and osteoarthritic human knee articular cartilage to assess 2 types of experimental treatments.
