Abstract:
The application of bio-orthogonality has greatly facilitated numerous aspects of biological studies in recent years. In particular, bio-orthogonal chemistry has transformed biological research, including in vitro conjugate chemistry, target identification, and biomedical imaging. In this review, we highlighted examples of bio-orthogonal in vivo imaging published in recent years. We grouped the references into two major categories: bio-orthogonal chemistry-related imaging and in vivo imaging with bio-orthogonal nonconjugated pairing. Lastly, we discussed the challenges and opportunities of bio-orthogonality for in vivo imaging.
