Eu 3+ integrated photoluminescence intensity ratio (PLIR) approach for optical detection of lactates in blood serum, plasma and confocal imaging of brain tissues has very high potential for exploitation of this technique in both in vitro monitoring and in vivo bioimaging applications for the detection of biomarkers in various diseases states. This image is diagrammatic representation of fact that the overall PLIR is higher with more lactates conjugated with Eu 3+ ions. Further details can be found in the article by Tarun Kakkar et al. ( e201700199 ).
