Popis: | This paper discuss drug concentration measurement based on Raman spectroscopy of tear fluids with paper substrates for on-site therapeutic drug monitoring (TDM). We focus on tear fluids as alternative specimens to blood for minimally-invasive TDM. By using paper substrates, specimen collection and measurement based on surface enhanced Raman spectroscopy will be performed easily and inexpensively. In experiment, we fabricated paper-based substrate for surface enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS) of tear fluids and evaluated its surface. Scanning electron microscope images of them showed that gold nano-rods were adsorbed on the surface uniformly. This result implies that analysis of tear fluids with paper substrates would be realized with high sensitivity by SERS. |
