Surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS) imaging is one of the most prevalent and efficient molecular imaging techniques that may provide enhanced Raman signals of samples such as cells or biomolecules for highly accurate measurement. Furthermore, SERS imaging-based techniques can be adapted to portable systems, making them sufficient to be used for POC applications. In this review, we focused on prominent publications based on SERS imaging techniques in combination with microfluidics platforms for POC analysis of proteins, biomarkers and pathogens over the past five years.
