A comparative analysis of different biofluids towards ovarian cancer diagnosis using Raman microspectroscopy.
Analytical and bioanalytical chemistry ·doi:10.1007/s00216-020-03045-1

Biofluids, such as blood plasma or serum, are currently being evaluated for cancer detection using vibrational spectroscopy. These fluids contain information of key biomolecules, such as proteins, lipids, carbohydrates and nucleic acids, th…

article 2011
Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy discriminates a spectral signature of endometriosis independent of inter-individual variation
The Analyst ·doi:10.1039/c0an00972e

Endometriosis is the growth of endometrial tissue outside of the uterine cavity. Its aetiology remains obscure, and it is difficult to diagnose ranging from asymptomatic to debilitating disease. Mid-infrared (IR) spectroscopy has become rec…

2011
Infrared spectroscopy with multivariate analysis to interrogate endometrial tissue: a novel and objective diagnostic approach.
British journal of cancer ·doi:10.1038/sj.bjc.6606094

BackgroundEndometrial cancer is the most common gynaecological malignancy in the United Kingdom. Diagnosis currently involves subjective expert interpretation of highly processed tissue, primarily using microscopy. Previous work has shown t…

article 2008
Elevated expression of CYP1A1 and  -SYNUCLEIN in human ectopic (ovarian) endometriosis compared with eutopic endometrium
Molecular human reproduction ·doi:10.1093/molehr/gan056

Endometriosis is a debilitating disease in which apoptotic, genetic, immunological, angiogenic and environmental factors have been implicated. Endocrine-disrupting agents (e.g. dioxins) might be involved. Dioxins, via the arylhydrocarbon re…
