Raman Spectroscopic Analyses of Jaw Periosteal Cell Mineralization

Figure 2

Mean Raman spectra collected from MSCA-1⁺ JPCs after 20 days of osteogenic differentiation in DMEM and MC medium. (a) Spectra from patient #1: averages were generated from 79 (MC) and 48 (DMEM) single spectra; (b) 128 (MC) and 37 (DMEM) single spectra were averaged for mean spectra from patient #2; (c) mean spectra from patient #3 were generated from 46 (MC) and 100 (DMEM) single spectra. Bone-specific peaks were assigned based on Mandair and Morris (2015) [13].
