Sumario: | Raman-active modes of human skin and pork belly have been studied systematically by a near-infrared Raman spectrometer with an exciting laser of 1064 nm. The main components and quantitative determination of pork belly are extracted by fitting the Raman spectra with the normalized Raman spectra of biochemical reagents such as collagen, elastin, triolein, fibronectin, fibrin, and hyaluronic acid. It demonstrates that the main components and quantity are various at different locations of pork belly, while the main components of human skin are similar to those of pig skin. In a further step, the evolution of the heating time-dependent Raman modes of isolated pig skin has been investigated for the mechanism of burnt skin. One can find that the spatial structure and main components of skin have an excellent thermal stability in the temperature range from -120 to 200 (∘)C, which is confirmed by the temperature dependent Raman spectra of isolated pig skin, microporous acellular dermal matrix (MADM) as well as their corresponding biochemical reagents (collagen, elastin, triolein, etc.). These results help understand the mechanism of the living skin burnt by fire or hot water, and supplies an alternative technology for surgeons to diagnose the depth of a burn injury in time. |
