二甲基亚砜对离体猪皮肤组织的拉曼光谱的影响

拉曼光谱技术作为鉴定生物分子种类最有力的分析工具之一,具有快速、简单、无损、准确等优点.目前,拉曼光谱已被国内外学者广泛开展了在人体组织的应用研究,但由于生物组织具有高散射性,因此限制了拉曼光谱对其的检测深度.本文主要采用光透明剂--二甲基亚砜对组织拉曼光谱的影响进行研究,对离体猪皮组织的不同深度（100 μm,200 μm,300 μm,400 μm）拉曼光谱强度随处理前、后不同时间（0 min,10 min,20 min,30 min,60 min）的变化进行对比.结果发现,不管是经二甲基亚砜处理前还是后,都出现随着距猪皮组织表面的深度加深,其拉曼光谱强度都不断减少;同时发现各层猪皮组织随着处理后时间的加长,其特征峰的强度不断加强,信噪比逐渐提高,在处理后的60 min效果最好;而且出现了在经二甲亚砜处理前看不见的峰（1 126 cm-1和1 426 cm-1）.结果表明：5%DMSO对组织的处理能增强其拉曼光谱的强度,同时也能使拉曼光谱仪的信噪比提高,并且使组织谱图中特征峰也得到相应的增加.

Confocal Raman microspectroscopy on excised human skin: uncertainties in depth profiling and mathematical correction applied to dermatological drug permeation

Confocal Raman microspectroscopy represents the advantage of giving structural and conformational information on samples without any destructive treatment. Recently, several studies were achieved to study the skin hydration, endogenous and exogenous molecules repartition in the skin using the confocal feature of this technique. Meanwhile, when working through a material boundary with a different refractive index, the main limitation remains the spatial precision, especially the distortion in the depth and the depth resolution. Recently, several authors described mathematical models to correct the depth and the resolution values. In this study, we combined theoretical approaches, proposed by different authors with experimental measurements to try to find out the most appropriate approach for correction. We then applied the corrections on in‐depth profiles tracking the penetration of Metronidazole, a drug produced by Galderma for rosacea treatment, through excised human skin.

Confocal Raman microspectroscopy as a tool for studying the chemical heterogeneities of biofilms in situ

AIMS: To investigate the use of confocal Raman microspectroscopy (CRM) for the analysis of the structure, composition and development of fully hydrated biofilms. METHODS AND RESULTS: Pseudomonas aeruginosa PAO1 biofilms were cultured in a flow cell in minimal nutrient medium (artificial sea water) and their development was followed for up to 3 weeks. The spectroscopic signature of the biofilm cells and extracellular polymeric substances (EPS) were differentiated and their distribution in biofilm colonies and within water channels was mapped in-plane and -depth. The colonies were initially amorphous, mainly composed of cells with no detectable amount of EPS. They developed rapidly to give round colonies composed of a cellular core enclosed in a sheath of EPS. The EPS continued to increase and spread throughout the biofilm to become the dominating feature of aged colonies. Colonies with a liquid core morphology - characteristic of the seeding dispersal process - were also observed. CONCLUSIONS: This study demonstrated that CRM can be used to monitor the distribution of biofilm components in fully hydrated undisturbed biofilms over time. SIGNIFICANCE AND IMPACT OF THE STUDY: Confocal Raman microspectroscopy facilitates the analysis of hydrated, live bacterial biofilms as a function of space and time, thus making it a suitable technique for investigating the effects of various additives and environmental factors on biofilm growth.     

Quantification of local water and biomass in wild type PA01 biofilms by Confocal Raman Microspectroscopy

Confocal Raman Microspectroscopy (CRM) can be used as a tool for the in situ evaluation of the chemical composition of living, fully submerged, unstained biofilms. In this study the estimation of the local water content in Pseudomonas aeruginosa PA01 biofilms is given as an example. The ratio of the area of the O-H stretching vibration band at 3450 cm(-1), (water), to that of the C-H stretching bands at 2950 cm(-1) (biomass), was used to estimate the relative biofilm water content. The quantification of biofilm water and biomass was based on calibration curves generated from protein solutions. Water/biomass ratios (W:BR) equivalent to that of a 30% (w/v) protein solution were observed within some biofilm colonies.

A comparative Raman and CARS imaging study of colon tissue

An experimental evaluation of the information content of two complimentary techniques, linear Raman and coherent anti‐Stokes Raman scattering (CARS) microscopy, is presented. CARS is a nonlinear variant of Raman spectroscopy that enables rapid acquisition of images within seconds in combination with laser scanning microscopes. CARS images were recorded from thin colon tissue sections at 2850, 1660, 1450 and 1000 cm^–1 and compared with Raman images. Raman images were obtained from univariate and multivariate (k‐means clustering) methods, whereas all CARS images represent univariate results. Variances within tissue sections could be visualized in chemical maps of CARS and Raman images. However, identification of tissue types and characterization of variances between different tissue sections were only possible by analysis of cluster mean spectra, obtained from k‐means cluster analysis. This first comparison establishes the foundation for further development of the CARS technology to assess tissue. (© 2009 WILEY‐VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA, Weinheim)

Far-Field Raman Imaging of Short-Wavelength Particle Plasmons on Gold Nanorods

The surface plasmon fields of gold nanorods with a diameter of 100 nm and lengths of 1–5 m are imaged by using far-field Raman scattering of methylene blue adsorbed on the rods. When optically exciting the nanorods under total internal reflection with wave vector and electric field vector orientations along the rod axis, the plasmon field intensity along this axis is observed to be periodically modulated. This modulation is attributable to a beating of the exciting light wave and the nanorod plasmon mode. The plasmon wavelength deduced from the beat frequency is 379 nm, which is considerably smaller than the exciting laser wavelength of 647 nm. In general, Raman imaging is shown to be a powerful technique to probe local plasmon fields using far-field spectroscopy.
