摘要 |
The present invention relates to an apparatus and a method for measuring the presence of organic matter or the life/death of living matter (cell or tissue) using infrared absorption spectroscopic analysis. The measurement apparatus of the present invention comprises: an infrared light source for irradiating a sample with infrared rays; an infrared detection unit for detecting, from the sample, transmitted or reflected infrared rays; and a determination unit for identifying the amide infrared absorption peak of the sample using the detected infrared rays, and determining the presence of organic matter or the life/death of living matter in the sample from the identified amide infrared absorption peak. The present invention has effects in that without using a reagent, measurement is simple, quantification is feasible, and it is possible to consecutively measure whether or not a cell or tissue of the same sample is present, and the process of life/death change of the cell or tissue. |
