Abstract
Stimulated Raman scattering (SRS) is a rapid, nondestructive technique for imaging biomedical specimens with label-free chemical specificity. Here, we demonstrate a sparse spectral sampling SRS imaging approach where a rapidly-tunable dual-output all-fiber optical parametric oscillator is automatically tuned into specific vibrational modes across >1400cm-1. We demonstrate this system via simultaneously monitoring an active pharmaceutical ingredient and excipient within a single formulation, tracking penetration and permeation through distinct layers of ex vivo mouse skin over time with Raman fingerprint and high wavenumber spectral contrast. This novel method is ideally suited to monitor spatiotemporal dynamic changes during topical drug delivery.
