FT-Raman spectral analysis of human urinary stones.
FT-Raman spectroscopy is the most useful tool for the purpose of bio-medical diagnostics. In the present study, FT-Raman spectral method is used to investigate the chemical composition of urinary calculi. Urinary calculi multi-components such as calcium oxalate, hydroxyl apatite, struvite and uric acid are studied. FT-Raman spectrum has been recorded in the range of 3500-400 cm(-1). Chemical compounds are identified by Raman spectroscopic technique. The quantitative estimations of calcium oxalate monohydrate (COM) 1463 cm(-1), calcium oxalate dehydrate (COD) 1478 cm(-1), hydroxyl apatite 959 cm(-1), struvite 575 cm(-1), uric acid 1283 cm(-1) and oxammite (ammonium oxalate monohydrate) 2129 cm(-1) are calculated using particular peaks of FT-Raman spectrum. The quantitative estimation of human urinary stones suitable for the single calibration curve was performed.
