Abstract
A system and method for characterizing biological activity in a live cell using a mid-infrared photothermal system and at least one molecular probe. A mid-infrared optical source generates a mid-infrared beam, the mid-infrared beam being directed at the sample to induce a thermal effect. A visible light source generates a light, the light illuminating the sample on the substrate. An optical detector collects the light after interaction with the sample. Biological activity in the sample is characterized based on a spectral shift. Each molecular probe includes an substrate and a chemical functional group.
