The detection scheme of conventional mid-infrared (mid-IR) spectroscopy and imaging as well as the strong absorption of water restricts the application of mid-IR spectroscopy/imaging. We applied optoacoustic sensing for the non-invasive retrieval of mid-IR signals in biological tissues and developed Mid-IR Optoacoustic Microscopy (MiROM). This results in a label-free bond-selective microscopy that is able to monitor lipids, proteins, and carbohydrates down to a single-cell level with a lateral resolution of ~5 µm. We will discuss MiROM’s most recent developments for spatiotemporal metabolic monitoring in living cells and tissues as well as perspectives and recent advances for its application in vivo.
