title: Discrimination of prostate cancer cells by reflection mode FTIR photoacoustic spectroscopy.
abstract: In this communication reflection mode Fourier transform infrared photoacoustic spectroscopy (FTIR-PAS) is used to obtain IR spectra of four prostate and prostate cancer cell line types (CaP) allowing their differentiation by principal components analysis.
