Abstract
The consensus for the precise mechanism of action of general anesthetics is through allosteric interactions with GABA receptors in neurons. However, it has been speculated that these anesthetics may also interact with the plasma membrane on some level. Owing to the small size of anesthetics, direct visualization of these interactions is difficult to achieve. We demonstrate the ability to directly visualize a deuterated analog of propofol in living cells using stimulated Raman scattering (SRS) microscopy. Our findings support the theory that propofol is highly concentrated and interacts primarily through non-specific binding to the plasma membrane of neurons. Additionally, we show that SRS microscopy can be used to monitor the dynamics of propofol binding using real-time, live-cell imaging. The strategy used to visualize propofol can be applied to other small molecule drugs that have been previously invisible to traditional imaging techniques Multi-modal SRS developed for real-time biological imaging of small molecule substances Propofol primarily concentrates at the cell membrane of neurons Anesthesia dynamics can be monitored in real-time with SRS

Abstract
Lipids play a critical role in cellular signaling, energy storage, and the construction of cellular membranes. In this paper, we propose a novel on-site approach for detecting and differentiating enriched unsaturated lipids based on the direct coupling of SPME probes with Raman spectroscopy. To this end, different SPME particles, namely, hydrophilic-lipophilic balanced (HLB), mixed-mode (C8-SCX), and C18, were embedded in polyacrylonitrile (PAN) and tested for their efficacy as biocompatible coatings. The C18/PAN coating showed less background interference compared to the other sorbent materials during the analysis of unsaturated lipids. In addition, different SPME parameters that influence extraction efficiency, such as extraction temperature, extraction time, and washing solvent, were also investigated. Our results indicate a clear dependence between the Raman band intensity related to the number of double bonds in fatty acids mixture and the number of double bonds in a fatty acid. Our findings further show that Raman spectroscopy is especially useful for the analysis of lipid unsaturation, which is calculated as the ratio of n(C═C)/n(CH2) using the intensities of the Raman bands at 1655/1445 cm-1. Furthermore, the developed protocol reveals great SPME activity and high detection ability for several unsaturated lipids in different complex matrixes, such as cod liver oil. Finally, the applicability of this technology was demonstrated via the characterization of cod liver oil and other vegetable oils. Thus, the proposed SPME-Raman spectroscopy approach has a great future potential in food, environmental, clinical, and biological applications.

Abstract
Propofol is a widely used intravenous anesthetic agent in sedation and general anesthesia. To improve the safety and maintain the depth of anesthesia, it is important to develop a rapid, sensitive, and reliable method to monitor the concentration of propofol in blood during anesthesia continuously. Here, we present a novel strategy based on paper spray ionization-mass spectrometry (PSI-MS) to detect propofol. Samples (in 10 μL) were mixed with methanol as protein precipitation solvent and 2,6-dimethylphenol as internal standard. Protein micro-precipitation was achieved with methanol by vortexing and centrifuging for 5 s each, and propofol was extracted to the supernatant. PSI-MS was performed in negative ionization mode, and MS signal lasted for 1 min. The analysis of a single sample was completed within 2 min. The area ratios of propofol to internal standard were calculated for quantification. Limit of detection of 5.5 ng mL-1 and limit of quantification of 18.2 ng mL-1 were achieved for propofol in whole blood. Calibration curve was linear in the range of 0.02-10 μg mL-1. The developed method was used successfully in monitoring the propofol concentration in 3 patients' whole blood during anesthesia, showing its further application in controlling and feeding-back target concentration infusion.

Abstract
Abstract
Raman spectroscopy and its variants allow for the investigation of a wide range of biological and biomedical samples, i. e. tissue sections, single cells and small molecules. The obtained information is on a molecular level. By making use of databases and chemometrical approaches, the chemical composition of complex samples can also be defined. The measurement procedure is straight forward, however most often sample preparation protocols must be implemented. While pure samples, such as high purity powders or highly concentrated chemicals in aqueous solutions, can be directly measured without any prior sample purification step, samples of biological origin, such as tissue sections, pathogens in suspension or biofluids, food and beverages often require pre-processing steps prior to Raman measurements. In this book chapter, different strategies for handling and processing various sample matrices for a subsequent Raman microspectroscopic analysis were introduced illustrating the high potential of this promising technique for life science and medical applications. The presented methods range from standalone techniques, such as filtration, centrifugation or immunocapture to innovative platform approaches which will be exemplary addressed. Therefore, the reader will be introduced to methods that will simplify the complexity of the matrix in which the targeted molecular species are present allowing direct Raman measurements with bench top or portable setups.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Reducing the amount of water-soluble fermentation inhibitors like furfural is critical for downstream bio-processing steps to biofuels. A theoretical approach for tailoring absorption polymers to reduce these pretreatment contaminants would be useful for optimal bioprocess design. RESULTS Experiments were performed to measure aqueous furfural partitioning into polymer resins of 5 bisphenol A diglycidyl ether (epoxy) and polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS). Experimentally measured partitioning of furfural between water and PDMS, the more hydrophobic polymer, showed poor performance, with the logarithm of PDMS-to-water partition coefficient falling between -0.62 and -0.24 (95% confidence). In contrast, the fast setting epoxy was found to effectively partition furfural with the logarithm of the epoxy-to-water partition coefficient falling between 0.41 and 0.81 (95% confidence). Flory-Huggins theory is used to predict the partitioning of furfural into diverse polymer absorbents and is useful for predicting these results. CONCLUSION We show that Flory-Huggins theory can be adapted to guide the selection of polymer adsorbents for the separation of low molecular weight organic species from aqueous solutions. This work lays the groundwork for the general design of polymers for the separation of a wide range of inhibitory compounds in biomass pretreatment streams.
