We utilize spectral focusing hyperspectral stimulated Raman scattering (SRS) imaging for longitudinally assessment of the interactions between live zebrafish and microplastics (MP) throughout the development process. Our study delves into the pathways of MP uptake and the size-dependent accumulation of MP within different zebrafish organs during various developmental phases. The altered lipid metabolic dynamics uncovered by Raman-tagged hyperspectral SRS imaging further reveal the hepatic inflammation and disruptions in energy metabolism within MP-exposed zebrafish, providing fresh insights on the potential impacts and fate of MP on diverse living organisms.
