Investigation of the utility of optical spectroscopy for management of chronic respiratory disease through investigation of sputum mucin glycosylation patterns
2019-01-01
Abstract excerpt
Chronic respiratory diseases such as chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), lung cancer and cystic fibrosis (CF) are leading causes of disease and death in the UK. These diseases are difficult to monitor and diagnose in an efficient and timely manner. In this work, Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) was used to investigate sputum samples from lung cancer, COPD and CF patients for specific IR-spe...
