ACS Omega. 2023 Nov 3;8(45):42028-42044. doi: 10.1021/acsomega.3c04789. eCollection 2023 Nov 14.

Abstract

Light addressable potentiometric sensors (LAPS) are a competitive tool for unmarked biochemical imaging, especially imaging on microscale. It is essential to optimize the imaging speed and spatial resolution of LAPS since the imaging targets of LAPS, such as cell, microfluidic channel, etc., require LAPS to image at the micrometer level, and a fast enough imaging speed is a prerequisite for the dynamic process involved in biochemical imaging. In this study, we discuss the improvement of LAPS in terms of imaging speed and spatial resolution. The development of LAPS in imaging speed and spatial resolution is demonstrated by the latest applications of biochemistry monitoring and imaging on the microscale.
