Glycerol dehydration of native and diabetic animal tissues studied by THz-TDS and NMR methods

Abstract: Abstract:The optical clearing method has been widely used for different spectral ranges where it provides tissue transparency. In this work, we observed the enhanced penetration of the terahertz waves inside biological samples (skin, kidney, and cornea) treated with glycerol solutions inducing changes of optical and dielectric properties. It was supported by the observed trend of free-to-bound water ratio measured by the nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) method. The terahertz clearing efficiency was found to be… Show more

“…Terahertz (THz) frequency range is finding more and more applications in different fields of fundamental research [1] and a variety of everyday applications such as nondestructive spectroscopy [2] and imaging [3], communications [4,5] and ultrafast control [6] as well as biomedicine [7]. Recent advances in research have brought high intensity broadband sources of THz radiation into play [8].…”

“…Thus taking less computation time for numerical reconstruction. This technique is preferable for the analysis of light diffraction by histological slides [3]. Angular spectrum representation consists of the following stages: (i) the representation of the field through the angular spectrum of 2D waves (Eq.1); (ii) multiplication by the transfer function that contains a complex refractive index of the object (Eq.2); (iii) the back transition from plane waves to the wave field in the calculated z-plane (Eq.3).…”
