چکیده

Single bacterial spores were analyzed by using nonlinear Raman microspectroscopy based on coherent anti-Stokes Raman scattering (CARS). The Raman spectra were retrieved from CARS spectra and found to be in excellent agreement with conventionally collected Raman spectra. The phase retrieval method based on maximum entropy model revealed significant robustness to external noise. The direct comparison of signal amplitudes exhibited a factor of 100 stronger CARS signal, as compared with the Raman signal.

Single-shot detection of bacterial endospores via coherent Raman spectroscopy.

Recent advances in coherent Raman spectroscopy hold exciting promise for many potential applications. For example, a technique, mitigating the nonresonant four-wave-mixing noise while maximizing the Raman-resonant signal, has been developed and applied to the problem of real-time detection of bacterial endospores. After a brief review of the technique essentials, we show how extensions of our e...

Raman spectroscopy-compatible inactivation method for pathogenic endospores.

Micro-Raman spectroscopy is a fast and sensitive tool for the detection, classification, and identification of biological organisms. The vibrational spectrum inherently serves as a fingerprint of the biochemical composition of each bacterium and thus makes identification at the species level, or even the subspecies level, possible. Therefore, microorganisms in areas susceptible to bacterial con...

Detecting anthrax in the mail by coherent Raman microspectroscopy

C specific optical imaging and sensing play a pivotal role in biomedical imaging, environmental sensing, and preventive measures to counter chemical and biological warfare. Frequently, objects to be imaged and identified are not present on a surface, and the light probe has to pass through layers of scattering material. In particular, the detection of weaponized anthrax in the mail room is an i...
