Raman spectroscopy provides a powerful diagnostic tool for accurate determination of albumin glycation.

We present the first demonstration of glycated albumin detection and quantification using Raman spectroscopy without the addition of reagents. Glycated albumin is an important marker for monitoring the long-term glycemic history of diabetics, especially as its concentrations, in contrast to glycated...
