Hyperspectral backscatter imaging : a label-free approach to cytogenetics (2016)
Rebner, Karsten ; Ostertag, Edwin ; Kessler, Rudolf
Current techniques for chromosome analysis need to be improved for rapid, economical identification of complex chromosomal defects by sensitive and selective visualisation. In this paper, we present a straightforward method for characterising unstained human metaphase chromosomes. Backscatter imaging in a dark-field setup combined with visible and short near-infrared spectroscopy is used to monitor morphological differences in the distribution of the chromosomal fine structure in human metaphase chromosomes. The reasons for the scattering centres in the fine structure are explained. Changes in the scattering centres during preparation of the metaphases are discussed. FDTD simulations are presented to substantiate the experimental findings. We show that local scattering features consisting of underlying spectral modulations of higher frequencies associated with a high variety of densely packed chromatin can be represented by their scatter profiles even on a sub-microscopic level. The result is independent of the chromosome preparation and structure size. This analytical method constitutes a rapid, costeffective and label-free cytogenetic technique which can be used in a standard light microscope.
Elastic and inelastic light scattering spectroscopy and its possible use for label-free brain tumor typing (2017)
Ostertag, Edwin ; Stefanakis, Mona ; Rebner, Karsten ; Kessler, Rudolf
This paper presents an approach for label-free brain tumor tissue typing. For this application, our dual modality microspectroscopy system combines inelastic Raman scattering spectroscopy and Mie elastic light scattering spectroscopy. The system enables marker-free biomedical diagnostics and records both the chemical and morphologic changes of tissues on a cellular and subcellular level. The system setup is described and the suitability for measuring morphologic features is investigated.
Pigmentation of white, brown and green chicken eggshells analyzed by reflectance, transmittance and fluorescence spectroscopy (2019)
Ostertag, Edwin ; Scholz, Miriam ; Klein, Julia ; Rebner, Karsten ; Oelkrug, Dieter
We report on the reflectance, transmittance and fluorescence spectra (λ=200–1200nm) of four types of chicken eggshells (white, brown, light green, dark green) measured in situ without pretreatment and after ablation of 20–100 μm of the outer shell regions. The color pigment protoporphyrin IX (PPIX) is embedded in the protein phase of all four shell types as highly fluorescent monomers, in the white and light green shells additionally as non-fluorescent dimers, and in the brown and dark green shells mainly as non-fluorescent poly-aggregates. The green shell colors are formed from an approximately equimolar mixture of PPIX and biliverdin. The axial distribution of protein and color pigments were evaluated from the combined reflectances of both the outer and inner shell surfaces, as well as from the transmittances. For the data generation we used the radiative transfer model in the random walk and Kubelka-Munk approaches.
Extension of solid immersion lens technology to super-resolution Raman microscopy (2015)
Ostertag, Edwin ; Lorenz, Anita ; Rebner, Karsten ; Kessler, Rudolf ; Meixner, Alfred
Scanning Near-Field Optical Microscopy (SNOM) has developed during recent decades into a valuable tool to optically image the surface topology of materials with super-resolution. With aperture-based SNOM systems, the resolution scales with the size of the aperture, but also limits the sensitivity of the detection and thus the application for spectroscopic techniques like Raman SNOM. In this paper we report the extension of solid immersion lens (SIL) technology to Raman SNOM. The hemispherical SIL with a tip on the bottom acts as an apertureless dielectric nanoprobe for simultaneously acquiring topographic and spectroscopic information. The SIL is placed between the sample and the microscope objective of a confocal Raman microscope. The lateral resolution in the Raman mode is validated with a cross section of a semiconductor layer system and, at approximately 180 nm, is beyond the classical diffraction limit of Abbe.
Process analytical techniques for hot-melt extrusion and their application to amorphous solid dispersions (2017)
Hitzer, Patrick ; Bäuerle, Tim ; Drieschner, Tobias ; Ostertag, Edwin ; Paulsen, Katharina ; Lishaut, Holger van ; Lorenz, Günter ; Rebner, Karsten
Newly developed active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs) are often poorly soluble in water. As a result the bioavailability of the API in the human body is reduced. One approach to overcome this restriction is the formulation of amorphous solid dispersions (ASDs), e.g., by hot-melt extrusion (HME). Thus, the poorly soluble crystalline form of the API is transferred into a more soluble amorphous form. To reach this aim in HME, the APIs are embedded in a polymer matrix. The resulting amorphous solid dispersions may contain small amounts of residual crystallinity and have the tendency to recrystallize. For the controlled release of the API in the final drug product the amount of crystallinity has to be known. This review assesses the available analytical methods that have been recently used for the characterization of ASDs and the quantification of crystalline API content. Well established techniques like near- and mid-infrared spectroscopy (NIR and MIR, respectively), Raman spectroscopy, and emerging ones like UV/VIS, terahertz, and ultrasonic spectroscopy are considered in detail. Furthermore, their advantages and limitations are discussed with regard to general practical applicability as process analytical technology (PAT) tools in industrial manufacturing. The review focuses on spectroscopic methods which have been proven as most suitable for in-line and on-line process analytics. Further aspects are spectroscopic techniques that have been or could be integrated into an extruder.
Cleaning in Place Konzept zum Dauerbetrieb optischer Sonden in der Prozessanalytik der Polymerextrusion (2018)
Bäuerle, Tim ; Ostertag, Edwin ; Drieschner, Tobias ; Lorenz, Anita ; Mannhardt, Joachim ; Lorenz, Günter ; Rebner, Karsten
Die kontinuierliche Erfassung von Qualitätsparametern ist eine zunehmende Anforderung in der Polymerextrusion. Die optische Spektroskopie kann diese Anforderung erfüllen, da sie neben der Farbe weitere Parameter wie beispielsweise chemische Eigenschaften, Trübungsgrad oder Partikelgröße erfasst. Dabei werden für Inline-Messungen im Extruder optische Sonden eingesetzt. Im laufenden Betrieb bilden sich Ablagerungen auf den Sondenfenstern. Dieser Beitrag präsentiert ein neues Cleaning in Place Konzept, mit dessen Hilfe die Fenster auch während der Produktion ohne Unterbrechung gereinigt werden können. Auch die Kalibrierung der Messtechnik ist dabei möglich. Das verhindert Rüstzeiten und sichert eine kontinuierliche Inline-Messung.

Barsan, Nicolae ; Gauglitz, Günter ; Oprea, Alexandru ; Ostertag, Edwin ; Proll, Günther ; Rebner, Karsten ; Schierbaum, Klaus ; Schleifenbaum, Frank ; Weimar, Udo
Different sensor types using chemical and biochemical principles are described. The former are mainly gas sensors, the latter are applied especially to liquids. Those label-free direct detection methods are compared with applications where assays take advantage of labeled receptors. Furthermore, selected applications in the area of gas sensors are discussed, and sensors for process control, point-of-care diagnostics, environmental analytics, and food analytics are reviewed. In addition, multiplexing approaches used in microplates and microarrays are described. On account of the huge number of sensor types and the wide range of possible applications, only the most important ones are selected here.
