Show Abstract
We labeled the living yeast cell surface (Saccharomyces cerevisiae strain W303-1A) by silver nanoparticles which can form nanoaggregates and found to show surface enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) activity. Blinking of SERS and its polarization dependence reveal that SERS signals are from amplified electromagnetic field at nanometric Ag nanoparticles gaps with single or a few molecules sensitivity. We tentatively assigned SERS spectra from a yeast cell wall to mannoproteins. Nanoaggregate-by-nanoaggregate variations and temporal fluctuations of SERS spectra are discussed in terms of inhomogeneous mannoprotein distribution on a cell wall and possible ways of Ag nanoaggregate adsorption, respectively.

Show Abstract
We present a general image reconstruction methodology for multiphoton fluorescence microscopy. The method is primarily based on Markov random field modeling of the detected image data. Evaluation on two-photon-excitation-(TPE) and two-photon-excited-4PI-microscopy images shows high quality artifact-free reconstruction. Image reconstruction for multiphoton imaging modalities such as TPE and 4PI may find potential application in nano-bioimaging and optical imaging.
