Abstract: Systems and methods for characterizing biological specimens, which may involve identifying a cell type or state corresponding to a disease or health condition of a subject. A biological specimen is subjected to electromagnetic radiation for spectroscopic analysis such as Surface Enhanced Raman Spectroscopy (SERS) to determine the relative abundance of proteins or amino acids in the cells, which is used in a comparison to previously stored relative abundance data of a database to automatically identifies at least one of cell type and/or cell state of the cells (or the disease/health state of the subject with the disease state including the possibility of virus infection, or drug susceptibility of a subject to bacteria or fungus). The method may also be employed with biological entities or cellular structures such as exosomes and even protein or nucleic acid fragments to determine disease states or health states of the subject.

Abstract: An Attenuated total reflection measuring apparatus capable of Raman spectral measurement has an infrared optical instrument and a Raman module. The infrared optical instrument is disposed on an ATR prism side of a sample, and is provided to irradiate the ATR prism with an infrared light, and collect the infrared light from the ATR prism. The Raman module is disposed on a side opposite to the ATR prism side relative to the sample, and has a guide tube that outputs an excitation light from an excitation light source to the sample, and a lens portion disposed inside thereof. An end of the guide tube is in a position to push the sample to the ATR prism. The Raman module has a lens position adjustment mechanism that moves the lens portion along an optical axis, and a spectroscope that detects a Raman scattering light collected by the lens portion.

Abstract: A nonlinear optical process on increasing the signal in SRS microscope by Resonant Stimulated Raman Scattering (RSRS) combines both RRS and SRS nonlinear processes, in absorber and host such a β-carotene-methanol solution, Flavins, or other key absorbers in tissues. The observed effect of enhanced RSRS in small signal gain is attributed to RR process in absorber β-carotene that transferring excess vibrations to host methanol from anharmonic vibrational interactions between the solute β-carotene in resonance with the solvent methanol vibrations. SRS microscopy signals are improved in RSRS microscope for imaging vibrational states in lipids CH2 and proteins CH3 in cancer tissues from RR in Flavins or other native chromophores in tissue and for applications in other areas of neuroscience and biomedicine, potentially enhancing signals in the RSRS microscope by 2 to 1000 times.

Abstract: The present invention provides a meter and method of use for measuring an optical attenuation coefficient in a liquid medium. In operation, a collimated beam, produced by a laser of the attenuation meter apparatus, propagates thru the liquid medium with filtered back-scattered light arriving at a camera of the meter. A light image is formed at a focal plane of the camera. The light image is recorded and analyzed by a microcomputer to provide optical beam attenuations coefficients.
