Surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy captures spectra of vaginal fluid.
Surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS) captures the spectra of vaginal fluid samples to detect biochemical changes in relation to bacterial presence. By determining the presence of specific bacterial species, SERS can help overcome the limitations of current clinical diagnostic techniques. Image courtesy of A.
