Abstract excerpt
The clinical use of stem cells in cell-based therapeutics for degenerative diseases requires development of criteria for defining normal stem cells to ensure safe transplantation. Currently, identification of abnormal from normal stem cells is based on extensive ex vivo and in vivo testing. Raman microscopy is a label-free method for rapid and sensitive detection of changes in cells' bio-molecular composition....
