Intracellular Relaxometry, Challenges, and Future Directions

ACS Central Science (2022)

Relaxometry with Nitrogen-Vacancy (NV) centers in diamonds, a technique where laser-stimulated NV centers emit light to measure magnetic fields, is advancing biological research by allowing detailed study of subcellular structures. The technique faces challenges in consistency and biocompatibility. Future directions include using larger NV center ensembles and exploring new materials proposed to enhance analysis and understanding of cellular processes and diseases.
