Towards refining Raman spectroscopy-based assessment of bone composition.

ABSTRACT: Various compositional parameters are derived using intensity ratios and integral area ratios of different spectral peaks and bands in the Raman spectrum of bone. The [Formula: see text]₁-, [Formula: see text]₂-,[Formula: see text]₃-, [Formula: see text]₄ PO₄^3-, and [Formula: see text] CO₃^2- bands represent the inorganic phase while amide I, amide III, Proline, Hydroxyproline, Phenylalanine, δ(CH₃), δ(CH₂), and [Formula: see text](C-H) represent the organic phase. Here, using high-resolution Raman spectroscopy, it is demonstrated that all PO₄^3- bands of bone either partially overlap with or are positioned close to spectral contributions from the organic compone
