Raman scattering shows the presence of prostate specific antigen in enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays

UK scientists have designed a method to detect prostate cancer using surface-enhanced resonance Raman scattering. Duncan Graham, from the University of Strathclyde in Glasgow, and his colleagues, combined the technique with a biological method called an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay, or ELISA, to detect prostate specific antigen, whose elevated levels in serum indicate the cancer's presence.
