Raman spectroscopy has been applied to analyze testicular cancer cell lines. Spectral differences between resistant and sensitive subtypes of testicular cancer cell line 833k samples were successfully analysed. The technique allowed reproducible and quantitative analysis of the specimen and illustrated the chemical specifications of the samples precisely. Six pairs of testicular cancer cell line 833k were studied and the findings were backed by statistical methods; that is, partial least squares discriminant analysis (PLS-DA). It was concluded that Raman spectroscopy can objectively differentiate between resistant and sensitive cell lines. These results suggest that in the future it may be possible to use cell lines and diagnostic Raman spectroscopy for preoperative classification of biological molecules. Further research is underway to determine whether results obtained from spectroscopic analysis of cell lines can be applied to actual human tissue samples. Copyright © Taylor & Francis Group, LLC.
