Photothermal deflectometry enhanced by total internal reflection enables non-invasive glucose monitoring in human epidermis

Abstract: We present TIR-PTD spectroscopy, an IR-pump/VIS-probe method for the measurement of IR absorption spectra by means of photothermal deflectometry (PTD) enhanced by total internal reflection (TIR). It overcomes the limitations of IR spectroscopy for the study of opaque samples and allows molecular fingerprinting of IR-active liquids or solids. Another important advantage of the presented approach over traditional IR spectroscopy methods is the ability to obtain IR information by means of VIS detection, which is … Show more

“…In clinical applications, mid-infrared microspectroscopy has shown potential for fast quantitative cancer diagnosis based on histological samples, without major disturbance to the routine pathology workflow (Baker et al, 2014). Additionally, the sensitivity and specificity of mid-infrared spectroscopy have proven adequate for non-invasive label-free glucose monitoring in human epidermis when combined with excitation by a quantum cascade laser and optoacoustic or photothermal detection (Pleitez et al, 2013(Pleitez et al, , 2015Sim et al, 2018). However, because of the strong absorption of mid-infrared radiation by water, applying mid-infrared microscopy to live-cell or tissue imaging requires confining cells within cuvettes about 10 mm thick in order to reduce the column of water.…”

“…This method presents some advantages over others due to its capability to measure concentration in situ without interrupting the process as well as the simple post processing work thereafter. As such, the method has been used since in the early 1990s up until recently (Maier et al 1994, Chance et al 1995, Liu et al 1996, Tuchin et al 1997, Wang 2000, Vargas et al 2001, Yao et al 2002, Bashkatov et al 2003, Zhang et al 2013a,b, Trichet et al 2014, Ullah et al 2014, Pleitez et al 2015.…”
