In the recent years, vibrational spectroscopies (infrared and Raman spectroscopy) have
been developed for all sorts of analyses in microbiology. Important features of these …

The post-genomics era has brought with it ever increasing demands to observe and
characterise variation within biological systems. This variation has been studied at the …

1.1 Objectives This article describes details of recent technological developments, data
elaboration methodologies, and representative examples of applications in this field. Only …

The ability to diagnose the early onset of disease, rapidly, non-invasively and unequivocally
has multiple benefits. These include the early intervention of therapeutic strategies leading …

In this study, Lactobacillus paracasei KS-199 was encapsulated within alginate-based
electrospun nanofiber mats possessing uniform, well-defined, smooth and bead-free …

The field of microbiology has traditionally been concerned with and focused on studies at
the population level. Information on how cells respond to their environment, interact with …

We demonstrate the utility of the Raman confocal microscope to generate a spectral profile
from a single microbial cell and the use of this approach to differentiate bacterial species. In …

The interest in a fast, high specific and reliable detection method for bacteria identification is
increasing. We will show that the application of vibrational spectroscopy is feasible for the …
