Abstract
Infrared spectroscopy is used for the chemical characterization of prokaryotes. However, its application has been limited to cell aggregates and lipid extracts because of the relatively low spatial resolution of diffraction. We herein report optical photothermal infrared (O-PTIR) spectroscopy of prokaryotes for a domain-level diagnosis at the single-cell level. The technique provided infrared spectra of individual bacterial as well as archaeal cells, and the resulting aliphatic CH3/CH2 intensity ratios showed domain-specific signatures, which may reflect distinctive cellular lipid compositions; however, there was interference by other cellular components. These results suggest the potential of O-PTIR for a domain-level diagnosis of single prokaryotic cells in natural environments.
