This study was aimed at discovering an impact of biochemical parameters (like content of cell wall polysaccharides, phenolic compounds, ascorbic acid or activity of pectinolytic enzymes) on cell wall microstructure during physiological fruit development. Cell wall microstructure as well as changes in the polysaccharides distribution were examined by confocal Raman microscopy. Also there was a need to simultaneous usage of reference method which is immunolabeling. A tomato fruit (Solanum lycopersicum cv Cerise) has been selected to observe the changes taking place in the fruit cell wall as it recently has been recognized as a model species for exploring fruit development processes such as fruit formation and ripening. Our studies showed that chemical images allows to depict changes in spatial distribution of polysaccharides in plant cell wall (including the middle lamella area), thus this technique allows to observation of cell wall degradation during tomato ripening (mainly pectic polysaccharides degradation). It seems that high level of pectinolytic enzymes activity and increasing content of ascorbate and hence decrease of pectins content have a significant impact on spatial distribution of biopolymers in fruit cell wall.
