| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The main objective all over our research is to achieve more information about the roles of water molecular network in different leaving cells through the lens of NIR light using Aquaphotomics approach.Lactobacillus bacteria strains grown in liquid cultures and different plant cells were studied.Water spectral pattern has been successfully used as biomarker for plant cell identification, monitoring of developmental stages of plant and bacteria cells and for monitoring and identification of bacteria.
As the primary goal of this project we proved with experimental results that the concept of Aquaphotomics provide the opportunity to develop tools including spectrophotometer and data analysis methods and software to precisely identify specific water bands, which can be used as water matrix coordinates of spectral patterns to be further used as biomarkers.
