چکیده

We present a method based on photon migration of extracting intrinsic fluorescence spectra from turbid media, using concomitantly measured fluorescence and reflectance. Intrinsic fluorescence is defined as fluorescence that is due only to fluorophores, without interference from the absorbers and scatterers that are present. Application to fluorescence spectra taken with tissue phantoms and human mucosal tissues demonstrates excellent agreement in both spectral line shape and intensity between the extracted and the directly measured intrinsic fluorescence spectra.

In vitro study of drug-protein interaction using electronic absorption, fluorescence, and circular dichroism spectroscopy

In the near future, design of a new generation of drugs targeting proteins will be required. Considering the complex bond between the drug and protein, the structure and stability of the target protein should be considered. So far, a series of in vitro investigations have been conducted with the aim of predicting drug-biological medium interactions. In these studies, use of spectroscopic method...

بررسی مقایسه‌ای دوزیمتری PpIX تولید شده درون تومور پس از مصرف ALA در درمان فوتوداینامیک به دو روش فلوئوریمتری و فلوئورسانس اسپکتروسکوپی

    Background: The important issue in the application of Photodynamic Therapy (PDT), as one of the fundamental basis of new treatment for cancerous lesions, is optimal dosimetry. In this context, it is necessary to obtain enough information about the drug concentration within the target tissue. On the other hand, the fact that ALA itself is not a photosensitizer and causes the production of Pr...

Studies of Interaction between Propranolol and Human Serum Albumin in the Presence of DMMP by Molecular Spectroscopy and Molecular Dynamics Simulation

The interaction between propranolol (PROP) and human serum albumin (HSA) was studied in the presence of dimethyl methylphosphonate (DMMP). DMMP is usually considered as a simulant for chemical warfare agents (CWAs). For this purpose fluorescence quenching, resonance light scattering (RLS), synchronous, three-dimensional fluorescence spectroscopy and molecular dynamics (MD) simulation were emplo...

Turbidity-corrected Raman spectroscopy for blood analyte detection.

A major challenge in quantitative biological Raman spectroscopy, particularly as applied to transcutaneous Raman spectroscopy measurements, is overcoming the deleterious effects of scattering and absorption (turbidity). The Raman spectral information is distorted by multiple scattering and absorption events in the surrounding medium, thereby diminishing the prediction capability of the calibrat...

Coagulation modeling using artificial neural networks to predict both turbidity and DOM-PARAFAC component removal

In this study, four different neural network models were evaluated for predicting both turbidity and dissolved organic matter (DOM) removal during the coagulation process at the Akron Water Treatment Plant (Akron, Ohio, USA). DOM was monitored and characterized using fluorescence spectroscopy and parallel factor (PARAFAC) analysis, building upon previous research which identified three unique f...
