Comment on ‘Dengue viral infection monitoring from diagnostic to recovery using Raman spectroscopy’

Abstract: The results of the letter ‘Dengue viral infection monitoring from diagnostic to recovery using Raman spectroscopy’ authored by Firdous and Anwar (2015 Laser Phys. Lett. 12 085601) are discussed. We show that the original interpretation of the results is not correct and does not correspond to data in the literature.

“…Further data analysis was performed in self-programmed software based on Matlab R2016a (The MathWorks, Inc., Natick, Massachusetts). For every pre-processed spectrum, a Gaussian function was fitted to the keratin-related Amide I Raman band around 1655 cm −1 [47] by non-linear regression with non-negativity constraints, shown in figure 1. For every XY position, the depth profile of the determined 1655 cm −1 peak height as a function of depth was approached using a seventh order polynomial by linear regression, which resulted in sufficient fitting for further analysis.…”

“…Carotenoids are fat-soluble molecules with a powerful antioxidant capacity against reactive oxygen species [26][27][28]. Carotenoids are dissolved in the blood plasma [29] and have a beneficial function in the human skin [6]. Carotenoids can be quantified separately using high performance liquid chromatography [9,30] and as a total concentration using photometric absorption at 450 and 525 nm [31] or by Raman spectroscopy [29] directly in blood plasma samples.…”

“…In the validation study, a blood sample was taken and analysed for carotenoid concentrations. The transportation path of the carotenoids goes from the digestive system directly into the blood [40,41], which could be genetically dependent [42] and be influenced by the diseases [43]. In the human metabolism the carotenoid concentration in blood changes more quickly than in the skin [44].…”
