SERS-based method provides us an alternative, ultra-sensitive label-free method to study the cancer cells metabolites. Abnormal metabolite molecules can be identified with comparison to the spectra of non-cancerous cells. The identity of these molecules can be confirmed by comparison with modeling compounds.en-USCC0 1.0 Universalhttp://creativecommons.org/publicdomain/zero/1.0/Presentation
