Raman measurements from a kidney injury model were taken, and the feasibility of early diagnosis was assessed.Materials and Methods: Rat models with mild and severe unilateral ureteral obstructions were created, with the injury to the kidney varying according to the tightness of the stricture. After generating the animal ureteral obstruction models, urine was collected from the kidney and bladder.Results and Discussion: After confirming the presence of renal injury, urine drops were placed onto a Raman chip whose surface had been enhanced with Au-ZnO nanorods, allowing nano-sized biomarkers that diffused into the nanogaps to be selectively amplified. The Raman signals varied according to the severity of the renal damage, and these differences were statistically confirmed.Conclusion: These results confirm that ureteral stricture causes kidney injury and that signals in the urine from the release of nano-biomarkers can be monitored using surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy.Keywords: ureteral obstruction, renal injury, nano-sized biomarker, ZnO nanorods, surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy, principal component analysis |
