[Adsorption of methylene blue on colloidal silver--a surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy study combined with density functional theory calculations].

Surface-enhanced Raman spectra of methylene blue (MB) at different concentrations in silver colloid were obtained. The results indicate that the physical adsorption is dominant at high concentration while the chemical adsorption is the main fashion at relatively low concentration; there are different adsorption orientations at different concentration: MB+ molecule is perpendicular to the surface of silver nanoparticle at high concentration and adopts a parallel orientation on the surface of nanoparticle at low concentration. The effect of adsorbing time of MB molecule in Ag colloid was investigated and the adsorption dynamics study shows that the parallel orientation at low concentration does not change with the adsorbing time increasing.

Using an oblique incident laser beam to measure the optical properties of stomach mucosa/submucosa tissue.

Background: The purpose of the study is to determine the optical properties and their differences for normal human stomach mucosa/submucosa tissue in the cardiac orifice in vitro at 635, 730, 808, 890 and 980 nm wavelengths of laser.

Results: The results of measurement showed that the absorption coefficients, the reduced scattering coefficients, the optical penetration depths, the diffusion coefficients, the diffuse reflectance and the shifts of diffuse reflectance of tissue samples at five different wavelengths vary with a change of wavelength.

[Superficial bladder cancer detection using diffuse reflectance spectral ratio R540/R575 of oxygenated hemoglobin bands].

A low-cost, fast, and noninvasive method for early diagnosis of malignant lesions of mucosa tissue based on diffuse reflectance spectra was applied in the study of the optical biopsy of superficial human bladder cancer. In the present paper, differential diagnosis of superficial human bladder cancer was studied using the diffuse reflectance spectral ratio (R540/R575) of the oxygenated hemoglobin absorption bands at 540 and 575 nm in vitro. Diffuse reflectance spectra for mucosa/submucosa tissues of normal bladder and superficial bladder cancer were measured using a spectrophotometer with an integrating sphere attachment.

The porphyrin compound in human body mainly includes hemoglobin, protoheme, protoporphyrin, coproporphyrin, uroporphyrin and so on. As we know, the metabolism of the porphyrin in human body depends on the physical conditions. It was found that the relative content of protoporphyrin (PPIX) and carotenoid in blood varied with the developing of the malignant tumor.
