Description
Summary:On page 424, Srikanth Singamaneni and co‐workers introduce a new class of multifunctional plasmonic nanostructures for locoregional combination therapy of cancer cells and non‐invasive monitoring of the therapy process. This new class of responsive surface‐enhanced Raman scattering probes will look for a Raman signal “flip”, which indicates the completion of the therapy process and can potentially replace conventional live/dead staining agents.
