Role of Vibrational Spectroscopy in Stem Cell Research
Figure 4
(a) The representative infrared spectra of control (dotted line), pre (dashed line) and post (solid line) transplant group human bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells in the 3050–2800 cm−1 region. (The deconvolved spectra were normalized with respect to the amide A band). (b) Hierarchical cluster analysis performed on the first-derivative and vector normalized spectra of control, pre- and posttransplant group BM-MSCs and resulting from Ward’s algorithm. The study was conducted in the 3050–2800 cm−1 spectral region.
