Summary
Serum SERS spectra interpretation requires careful validation. Our findings indicate purine metabolites, not proteins, dominate these spectra, challenging previous assignments and ensuring reliable diagnostics.
Area of Science:
- Analytical Chemistry
- Biochemistry
- Spectroscopy
Background:
- Conventional band assignments are used to interpret serum Surface-Enhanced Raman Spectroscopy (SERS) spectra.
- Previous studies suggest serum SERS spectra are influenced by proteins and lipids.
