Infrared microspectroscopy in biological research.

Modifying infrared scattering effects of single yeast cells with plasmonic metal mesh.

The scattering effects in the infrared (IR) spectra of single, isolated bread yeast cells (Saccharomyces cerevisiae) on a ZnSe substrate and in metal microchannels have been probed by Fourier transform infrared imaging microspectroscopy. Absolute extinction [(3.4±0.6)×10(-7) cm(2) at 3178 cm(-1)], scattering, and absorption cross sections for a single yeast cell and a vibrational absorption spe...

Mid-infrared Microspectroscopy of Difficult Samples Using Near-Field Photothermal Microspectroscopy

www.spectroscopyonl ine.com espite recent advances in Fourier transform-infrared (FT-IR) microspectroscopy and micro-attenuated total reflectance (ATR), for many types of samples there remains a need for even higher spatial resolution, or for a nondestructive method of recording localized mid-IR spectra from asreceived samples without the risk of damage or alteration by preparation techniques. ...

Microspectroscopy of single proliferating HeLa cells

Spectral differences between normal and abnormal tissue observed to date appear to be due to different averaging processes of spectral patterns that differ according to the cell’s biochemistry, due to its state of maturation, differentiation, and development. Thus, disease perturbs the distribution of cells in the different stages of maturation, differentiation, and development. Previous FTIR m...
