5 SERS-Based Medical Therapy and Theranostics In Vitro 

Chourpa and co-workers recorded simultaneously the fluorescence emission and SERRS spectra of the anticancer dmg mitoxantrone over the cell (Chourpa et al. 2008). The spectra confirmed the presence of small Ag NP aggregates when they contain fluorescence background superimposed with SERRS signal of mitoxantrone, noticeable due to the most intense band at 1300 cm A semiquantitative analysis of the intracellular spectra was used to deconvolute into a proportional addition of characteristic fluorescence and SERRS spectra. The deconvolution coefficients
