Abstract
We describe the promising development of third-harmonic generation (THG) in laser scanning microscopy for study of the functional imaging of live biological cells. The dynamics of in biological cells is shown. The signal consists of a transient increase in the intracellular concentration. THG microscopy allows one to temporally visualize the release of from internal stores and (or) calcium influx.
