Application note: Raman imaging of plant metabolite crystals (pdf)

Raman imaging is an ideal technique for studying plant tissue in a non-destructive and non-invasive way. Raman images spatially resolve chemical and structural information, and can be acquired in the presence of water and in vivo. Here the spatial distribution of plant metabolites and tissue structure are revealed using the Renishaw inVia™ Qontor® confocal Raman microscope.
