摘要

Surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS) has been employed in the current study to characterize various ovarian cancer stages using blood serum samples from both healthy controls and clinically recognized ovarian cancer patients. The SERS spectral features acquired using the SERS technique from these blood serum samples are compared to identify spectral characteristics that can be used for the identification and classification of ovarian cancer samples. Principal component analysis (PCA) is performed on the SERS spectral data sets obtained from blood serum samples of clinically confirmed patients of stage IV, stage III, and stage II of ovarian cancer, as well as from control samples, in order to investigate the potential of SERS as an effective tool for analysis that can explain how ovarian cancer progresses. SERS can be used for screening and early identification of biochemical changes occurring due to the progression of ovarian cancer reflected in the form of characteristic SERS spectral features of these samples.
