Journal Article
Simultaneous Raman and Infrared Spectroscopy of Stable Isotope Labelled Escherichia coli
2022
Overview
We report the use of a novel technology based on optical photothermal infrared (O-PTIR) spectroscopy for obtaining simultaneous infrared and Raman spectra from the same location of the sample allowing us to study bacterial metabolism by monitoring the incorporation of 13C- and 15N-labeled compounds. Infrared data obtained from bulk populations and single cells via O-PTIR spectroscopy were compared to conventional Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy in order to evaluate the reproducibility of the results achieved by all three approaches. Raman spectra acquired were concomitant with infrared data from bulk populations as well as infrared spectra collected from single cells, and were subjected to principal component analysis in order to evaluate any specific separation resulting from the isotopic incorporation. Similar clustering patterns were observed in infrared data acquired from single cells via O-PTIR spectroscopy as well as from bulk populations via FTIR and O-PTIR spectroscopies, indicating full incorporation of heavy isotopes by the bacteria. Satisfactory discrimination between unlabeled (viz. 12C14N), 13C14N- and 13C15N-labeled bacteria was also obtained using Raman spectra from bulk populations. In this report, we also discuss the limitations of O-PTIR technology to acquire Raman data from single bacterial cells (with typical dimensions of 1 × 2 µm) as well as spectral artifacts induced by thermal damage when analyzing very small amounts of biomass (a bacterium tipically weighs ~ 1 pg).
