High resolution Raman spectroscopy mapping of stem cell micropatterns†

چکیده
We report on the use of high resolution Raman spectroscopy mapping combined with a micro-engineered stem cell platform. This technique obtains quantitative information about the concentration of individual intracellular molecules such as proteins, lipids, and other metabolites, while tightly controlling cell shape and adhesion. This new quantitative analysis will prove highly relevant for in vitro drug screening applications and regenerative medicine.

Micro-Raman Spectroscopy of Silver Nanoparticle Induced Stress on Optically-Trapped Stem Cells
We report here results of a single-cell Raman spectroscopy study of stress effects induced by silver nanoparticles in human mesenchymal stem cells (hMSCs). A high-sensitivity, high-resolution Raman Tweezers set-up has been used to monitor nanoparticle-induced biochemical changes in optically-trapped single cells. Our micro-Raman spectroscopic study reveals that hMSCs treated with silver nanopar...
متن کاملCell Migration According to Shape of Graphene Oxide Micropatterns
Photolithography is a unique process that can effectively manufacture micro/nano-sized patterns on various substrates. On the other hand, the meniscus-dragging deposition (MDD) process can produce a uniform surface of the substrate. Graphene oxide (GO) is the oxidized form of graphene that has high hydrophilicity and protein absorption. It is widely used in biomedical fields such as drug delive...
متن کاملRaman Spectroscopic Characterization of Hepatic Differentiation of Mesenchymal Stem Cells
Background and Aims: Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) are a preferred cell source for the generation of hepatocyte-like cells in regenerative medicine. They can be isolated from different sources, including adipose tissues. The Raman spectroscopy approach was evaluated for quick and efficient identification of MSCs differentiation status and a broader perspective on cell differentiation. Material...
متن کاملSpatially Resolved Analysis of Selectively Doped Regions via Confocal Raman Microscopy
More or less all proposed highly efficient solar cell concepts use quite successfully laterally selective boron doping. However, quality control regarding achieved doping level, lateral extension, etc. on real devices or precursors gets more and more complicated with these small structures as the typical characterisation techniques simply do not work well on small scale. High resolution mapping...
متن کاملInvestigation in to Properties of Polyurethane Closed Cell by High Loading of SiO2 Nanoparticles
In this research the composition of polyurethane closed cell (PUCC) with two different concentrations of SiO2 nanoparticles (1.0 and 2.0 wt%) have been prepared. Optical microscopy and SEM imaging, watering uptake, FTIR and Raman spectroscopy of the synthesized samples were carried out. The optical microscopy imaging of samples showed differences in the appearance of matrix produ...
