Investigational studies have demonstrated improvements in age-associated pathophysiology and disease conditions. However, invasive methods such as immunohistochemistry, metabolic assays, and polymerase chain reaction currently used to measure cell metabolism render cells unviable and unrecoverable for longitudinal studies and are incompatible with <em>in vivo</em> dynamic observations. We report a non-invasive optical technique to investigate the upregulation of nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD<small><sup>+</sup></small>) in keratinocytes (both <em>in vitro</em> and <em>ex vivo</em>) upon administration of nicotinamide mononucleotide (NMN) coated microneedle (μNDs) implants. Our technique exploits intrinsic autofluorescence of cells and tissues using multiphoton microscopy. Additionally, μND coating formulations to date have been evaluated using fluorescence microscopy to determine the coated amount, often an imprecise correlation between fluorescence intensity and the coated amount on the μND surface. We also show that rheomechanical attributes of the coating formulation (containing two different viscosity enhancers: sucrose and carboxy methyl cellulose) affect the flow mechanics of the coating formulation at micron scale, and thus the amount of drug coated on the μND surface. <em>In vitro</em> keratinocyte cells were investigated with four concentrations of NMN (50, 250, 500 and 1000 μg), and evaluated with time-dependent NMN (500 μg) treatment at 0, 5, 10, 30, 60, 360 and 1460 min. We demonstrate that intracellular keratinocyte fluorescence of the endogenous NADH shows a decreasing trend in both the average fluorescence lifetime (<em>τ</em><small><sub>m</sub></small>) and the free unbound NADH (<em>τ</em><small><sub>1</sub></small>), with increasing dosage of NMN administration. A similar trend in the average fluorescence lifetime (<em>τ</em><small><sub>m</sub></small>) of endogenous NAD(P)H was also seen in mouse ear skin <em>ex vivo</em> skin upon administration of NMN.

To address this escalating challenge, strategies such as antibiotic stewardship, development of antimicrobial therapies, and exploration of alternative treatment modalities are imperative. Metal–organic frameworks (MOFs), acclaimed for their outstanding biocompatibility and <em>in vivo</em> biodegradability, are promising avenues for the synthesis of novel antibiotic agents under mild conditions. Among these, zeolitic imidazolate frameworks (ZIFs), a remarkable subclass of MOFs, have emerged as potent antibacterial materials; the efficacy of which stems from their porous structure, metal ion content, and tunable functionalized groups. This could be further enhanced by incorporating or encapsulating metal ions, such as Cu, Fe, Ti, Ag, and others. This perspective aims to underscore the potential of ZIFs as antibacterial agents and their underlying mechanisms including the release of metal ions, generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS), disruption of bacterial cell walls, and synergistic interactions with other antibacterial agents. These attributes position ZIFs as promising candidates for advanced applications in combating bacterial infections. Furthermore, we propose a novel approach for synthesizing ZIFs and their derivatives, demonstrating exceptional antibacterial efficacy against <em>Escherichia coli</em> and <em>Staphylococcus aureus</em>.
