    Abstract:
    In this study, two approaches to salivary glands studies are presented: Raman imaging (RI) of tissue cross-section and surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS) of tissue homogenates prepared according to elaborated protocol. Collected and analyzed data demonstrate the significant potential of SERS combined with multivariate analysis for distinguishing carcinoma or tumor from the normal salivary gland tissues as a rapid, label-free tool in cancer detection in oncological diagnostics. Raman imaging allows a detailed analysis of the cell wall's chemical composition; thus, the compound's distribution can be semi-quantitatively analyzed, while SERS of tissue homogenates allow for detailed analysis of all moieties forming these tissues. In this sense, SERS is more sensitive and reliable to study any changes in the area of infected tissues. Principal component analysis (PCA), as an unsupervised pattern recognition method, was used to identify the differences in the SERS salivary glands homogenates. The partial least squares-discriminant analysis (PLS-DA), the supervised pattern classification technique, was also used to strengthen further the computed model based on the latent variables in the SERS spectra. Moreover, the chemometric quantification of obtained data was analyzed using principal component regression (PCR) multivariate calibration. The presented data prove that the PCA algorithm allows for 91% in seven following components and the determination between healthy and tumor salivary gland homogenates. The PCR and PLS-DA methods predict 90% and 95% of the variance between the studied groups (in 6 components and 4 factors, respectively). Moreover, according to calculated RMSEC (RMSEP), R2C (R2P) values and correlation accuracy (based on the ROC curve), the PLS-DA model fits better for the studied data. Thus, SERS methods combined with PLS-DA analysis can be used to differentiate healthy, neoplastic, and mixed tissues as a competitive tool in relation to the commonly used method of histopathological staining of tumor tissue.
