In vivo near-infrared Raman spectroscopy: demonstration of feasibility during clinical gastrointestinal endoscopy.

abstract：:Pterins are heterocyclic compounds with important biological functions, and most of them may exist in two acid-base forms in the pH range between 3 and 13 in aqueous solution. In this work, the photophysical properties of acid and basic forms of six compounds of the pterin family (6-hydroxymethylpterin [HPT], 6-methyl...
