Abstract
Fourier transform infrared and Raman (FT-IR and FT-Raman) microspectro scopy were used to study materials found in human tissue. Individual c ases involving cholesterol, calcium stearate, and a polystyrenesulfona te ion exchange resin demonstrate the utility of the spectroscopic dat a. Characteristic spectral bands for these materials were compared wit h those of authentic chemical species to confirm their identities. The role of vibrational spectroscopy in pathologic diagnoses is discussed .
