=== Raman and FT-IR based diagnostics ===
[[Raman spectroscopy|Raman]] and [[Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy|FTIR]] spectroscopy can be applied in many different ways towards improved diagnostics.<ref>{{Cite journal|title=Cultivation-Free Raman Spectroscopic Investigations of Bacteria|last1=B|first1=Lorenz|last2=C|first2=Wichmann|date=May 2017 |pmid=28188076|last3=S|first3=Stöckel|last4=P|first4=Rösch|last5=J|first5=Popp|journal=Trends in Microbiology|volume=25|issue=5|pages=413–424|doi=10.1016/j.tim.2017.01.002}}</ref><ref>{{Cite journal|title=Application of Vibrational Spectroscopy and Imaging to Point-of-Care Medicine: A Review|last1=S|first1=Pahlow|last2=K|first2=Weber|date=September 2018 |journal=Applied Spectroscopy|pmid=30265133|last3=J|first3=Popp|last4=Br|first4=Wood|last5=K|first5=Kochan|last6=A|first6=Rüther|last7=D|first7=Perez-Guaita|last8=P|first8=Heraud|last9=N|first9=Stone|volume = 72|issue = 1_suppl|pages = 52–84|doi = 10.1177/0003702818791939|pmc = 6524782|bibcode=2018ApSpe..72...52P}}</ref> For example:
