• Commercially available dye, Styryl-9M, can be used as a fluorescent probe for detection of cancer cell colonies embedded in a biological tissue phantom
• The ratio of fluorescence signals obtained at 1100 and 1200 excitation wavelength nm depends on the composition of the phantoms
• The ratio can be used as a quantitative measure to distinguish between samples without cells, with normal cells and with cancer cells
• This imaging allows cancer tumor localization within 1 mm3
• The proposed method is a promising tool for non-invasive deep photodetection of cancer

Advantageous determination of the local environment polarity via 2PA excitation as compared to the 1PA excitation: Only two selected excitation wavelengths while observation at one fixed fluorescence wavelength are enough to distinguish between solvents of different polarities. The polarity dependence is nonlinear, in contrast with the linear dependence upon 1PA excitation, which increases sensitivity of 2PA excitation. The difference between the observed 2PA-excited intensity ratio for the most and least polar solvents is about 9 folds, while the same difference for the absorption peak position, determined based on 1PA-excitation is less than 15%. Furthermore, longer wavelengths used for 2PA excitation offer less scattering, which is important in imaging of the tissue phantoms.

Sample preparation:0.3 ml of setting solution, 1.5 ml collagen solution, 105 cells, 1.5 ml tissue culture medium carefully layered over the gel. Stylyl-9 dye was added (7 μl of a 10 mg/ml DMSO solution per phantom) 16 hours before imaging.The following tumor cell lines were used: NIHOVCAR3, human ovarian cancer; MDA-MB-231, human mammary carcinoma; 4T1, mouse mammary carcinoma; +SA mammary carcinoma.
