Ramanomics: Quantification of Proteins, Nucleic Acids, & Lipids Inside Eukaryotic Cells

Molecular function in eukaryotic cells can be studied by quantifying proteins, nucleic acids, and lipids inside intracellular organelles. Traditionally, this quantification is performed through techniques that are given “-omic” terms such as proteomics, metabolomics, lipidomics, etc. using mass spectrometry (MS)-based techniques. 

Raman spectroscopy has traditionally been used to quantify the molecular structure of a wide range of chemical species with size ranges from near-field (<100 nm) to bulk measurements. Extensive work has gone into the application of Raman spectroscopy in many biochemical applications but successful solutions have often been difficult due to the complexity of the information obtained in the measurement and interferences arising from the laser-based methods used for Raman spectroscopy. Dr. Andrey Kuzmin of the University at Buffalo and Advanced Cytometry Instrumentation Systems, LLC, has successfully bridged this gap with the application of Raman spectroscopy to the quantification of intracellular components.  His development, termed “Ramanomics” can be used to quantify proteins, DNA, RNA, and lipids in live cells.

Isolation and Characterization of Microplastics

Microplastics contaminate marine, freshwater and terrestrial ecosystems around the world. The growing prevalence of these contaminants requires study on their impact on human health and ways in which they can be identified and remediated.

Barnett Technical Services (BTS) has participated in a study set up by the State of California to assess methods for counting and characterizing micro plastic particles in water. This summary illustrates some of the methods BTS used in this study.

Research & Technical Studies and SPNHC Joint Session (Starts at Noon).

What we offer the Conservation Community

The Micro Support Axis Pro micromanipulator allows for sampling of very small fragments (often smaller than can be seen with the naked eye).  This is often done for measurement by FT-IR, Raman, or another analytical technique.

An example of how the Axis Pro can be used to isolate small fragments for sampling may be seen here: https://barnett-technical.com/….

The Ostec XROS MF30 X-ray microscope can be used to perform nondestructive elemental analysis using XRF.  More information on this system may be found here: https://barnett-technical.com/….

A range of sampling solutions for a wide variety of material and chemical analysis situations may be found on our Steve’s Solutions page.
