Developing new nanomaterials with strong and distinctive Raman vibrations in the biological Raman-silent region (1800-2800 cm(-1)) were highly desirable for Raman hyperspectral detection and imaging in living cells and animals. Herein, polymeric nanoparticles with monomers containing alkyne, cyanide, azide, and carbon-deuterate were prepared as Raman-active nanomaterials (Raman beads) for bioimaging applications. Intense Raman signals were obtained due to the high density of alkyne, cyanide, azide, and carbon-deuterate in single nanoparticles, in absence of metal (such as Au or Ag) as Raman enhancers. We have developed a library of Raman beads for frequency multiplexing through the end capping substitutions of monomers and demonstrated five color SRS imaging of mixed nanoparticles with distinct Raman frequencies. In addition, with further surface functionalization of targeting moieties (such as nucleic acid aptamers and targeting peptides), targetable Raman beads were successfully used as probes for tumor targeting and Raman spectroscopic detection, including multicolor SRS imaging in living tumor cells and tissues with high specificity. Further in vivo studies indicated that Raman beads anchored with targeting moieties were successfully employed to target tumors in living mice after tail intravenous injection, and Raman spectral detection of tumor in live mice was achieved only through spontaneous Raman signal at the biological Raman-silent region without any signal enhancement due to a high density of Raman reporters in Raman beads. With further copolymerization of these monomers, Raman beads with supermultiplex barcoding could be readily achieved.
