Dynamic confocal Raman spectroscopy of flowing blood in bionic blood vessel

How to quickly and safely identify blood species has always been an urgent problem for scientists. Smear test method has the risk of blood contamination, and the blood itself may carry some unknown viruses or pathogens, which will bring health risks to the testing personnel. Therefore, in order to meet the urgent needs of rapid and safe detection of blood, a technology which can detect dynamic confocal Raman spectroscopy of flowing blood in bionic blood vessel was proposed. The blood, which was sealed in the bionic blood vessel, flowed through the focus gaze area of laser by the microfluidic pump, to detect the dynamic blood Raman spectrum. Human blood and cattle blood were selected as experimental objects, and the experiments were carried out under the same parameters. Combined with PCA-LDA (principal component analysis and linear discriminate analysis) classification model, the predictive classification of the two species without error recognition was realized. The hidden weak Raman signals were mined by derivative spectra, and the fundamental differences of Raman spectra of two species were compared. Then the biochemical information that caused the differences was also analyzed. The results show the method can meet the detection requirements of sealed blood, and the Raman spectra of flowing blood is more representative than those of static blood.
