We exploit Surface-Enhanced Raman Scattering (SERS) to investigate aqueous droplets of genomic DNA deposited onto silver-coated silicon nanowires and we show that it is possible to efficiently discriminate between spectra of tumoral and healthy cells. To assess the robustness of the proposed technique, we develop two different statistical approaches, one based on the Principal Component Analysis of spectral data and one based on the computation of the $\ell^2$ distance between spectra. Both methods prove to be highly efficient and we test their accuracy via the so-called Cohen's $\kappa$ statistics. We show that the synergistic combination of the SERS spectroscopy and the statistical analysis methods leads to efficient and fast cancer diagnostic applications allowing a rapid and unexpansive discrimination between healthy and tumoral genomic DNA alternative to the more complex and expensive DNA sequencing. |
