Study of dry pellets of blood plasma using THz spectroscopy

Abstract

This work is devoted to the development of a suitable phantom of a biological object for measurements in the THz frequency range and for approbation with various diagnostic methods developed in different THz laboratories. The phantoms were represented as a pellet of human and a laboratory rat blood plasma in the diabetic and the control groups. These objects were analyzed in various laboratories, using THz pulsed spectroscopy and a high-resolution THz spectrometer based on a backward wave oscillator. The components of the dry blood plasma were identified by the detected spectral lines.
