Vibrational Studies of Different Human Body Disorders Using FTIR Spectroscopy

Some of the important features of the bands occur in the present study. The band called amide A is available in all the diseased and healthy controls and the frequency of the band ranges from 3380 cm−1 to 3480.74 cm−1. The band due to C-H band and called hydrocarbon band was found only in paralytic and Alzheimer diseased along with normal healthy controls. Carbide band (C=C) is found only in Duchenne muscular dystrophy, paralytic and Alzheimer’s disease patients. Amide I was intact in all disorders with normal persons. Peroxide band (O-O) was found in all the cases of study. Amide IV band was found in paralytic, muscular dystrophy, Alzheimer’s diseases and normal controls. The amide V band was found in Alzheimer’s diseases only. The appearance or disappearance of the bands is a good sign to understand the mechanisms at the molecular level. FTIR spectroscopy may help in the diagnosis of the disease at the early stage of the onset. This spectroscopy can be used nicely for the study of hair, vaginal fluid, nails, urine, mucus, semen, synovial fluid, blood, hemoproteins, skin, and tears for human beings. We can also use it to understand the effect of adulteration on food and paint technology. FTIR is an indicator to explore the changes occurring at molecular level.


Introduction
Our main attention is concentrated on Fourier Transform Infrared (FTIR) Spectroscopy.This spectroscopy is a tool used to detect common contaminants, molecular deformations and complexities in other biological fluids such as serum, plasma hemoglobin molecule, seminal fluid, vaginal fluid, synovial fluid, tears, saliva and Cerebro Spinal Fluid (CSF) and some other components such as nails, skin, and hair.
FTIR is based on the fundamental principle of molecular spectroscopy.This broad ranging area of physics and chemistry covers multitude experimental techniques.
We would like to give some facts regarding the principle of this technique.Specific molecules absorb light energy at specific wavelengths.These are called resonance frequencies.Water molecule (H 2 O) resonates around 3450 cm −1 (wave number in unit) in the infrared region of the electromagnetic spectrum.
FTIR spectrophotometer works by taking a very small quantity of the sample and introducing it to the infrared cell.A cell may be a pellet or liquid container.An infrared light source is fitted with this cell and illuminated by the source.A spectrograph is obtained and the range of the spectrum started from 4000 cm −1 to 400 cm −1 .The intensity of light transmitted through the sample is measured at each wave number allowing the amount of light absorbed by the sample to be studied.We can determine the exact spectrum of the desired sample by difference of the spectrum before and after the illumination of the infrared source of light.This is known as the infrared spectrum of the sample.
The resonance frequencies of a molecule are due to the presence of molecular functional groups specific to the molecule.A functional group is simply a group of two or more atoms bonded together in a specific way.In the water molecule (H 2 O) the functional group is O-H.This group contributes to the resonance frequency around 3450 cm −1 .It is quite possible to determine the presence of different molecules in the sample.It can be done by measuring the absorption at different wavelengths.
Whenever a resonance with one of the constituent molecules present in the sample is met, the amount of light absorbed increases or conversely the amount of light transmitted through the sample decreases.This is known as attenuation cell FTIR spectrophotometer.
FTIR is very useful for identifying chemicals that are either organic, inorganic or biological.It is used to quantitative some components of an unknown mixture.It can be applied to the analysis of solids, liquids and gases.The term FTIR refers to a fairly recent development in the manner in which the data is collected and converted from an interference pattern of a spectrum.This spectroscopy is the powerful tool for identifying types of chemical bonds (functional groups).The wavelength of light absorbed is characteristic of the chemical bond [1].
A molecule has a number of fundamental vibrational frequencies and that each may be associated with absorption of radiation of its own frequency.There are 3N − 6 fundamental frequencies for a general molecule containing N atoms and for special molecules with degenerate frequencies, free internal rotations, etc.The frequency ranges from 100 cm −1 to 4000 cm −1 .The absorption bands generally lie in the infrared region.Absorption may occur at nonfundamental frequencies if two or more fundamental modes of vibration are excited simultaneously.The corresponding absorption is generally weak.
The infrared absorption spectrum of a complex molecule may show a large number of absorption bands of different intensities and with an irregular frequency pattern.Since the whole spectrum is characteristic of the molecule and no two species of molecule have exactly the same absorption pattern.We can use the spectra to identify compounds [2].
The molecular vibrations associated with infrared absorption are strictly vibrations of the entire molecule.It happens that the distortion is largely confined to one section of the molecule.If this section recurs in different molecules, the associated infrared absorption will reappear at essentially the same frequency and approximately the same intensity.This happens so, reliably that the presence or absence of absorption at a particularly frequency can be used to infer the presence or absence of the chemical grouping concerned.The absence of groups is more reliably determined.Absorption in a certain region may arise from some unusual combination of groupings which would be separately transparent.
Such frequencies associated with chemical groupings are called characteristic group frequencies.

Basic Theory of Infrared Vibrational Spectroscopy
Theoretical details of infrared spectroscopy are given here.A vibrating diatomic molecule can be approximated to a linear harmonic oscillator, whose frequency of vibration can be calculated on the classical lines using New-ton's equation of motion [3].A rigid diatomic molecule is shown in Figure 1.
If we suppose the bond distorted from its equilibrium length r e to a new length r.Restoring forces on each atom of a diatomic molecule can be calculated as.

(
) We know that ( ) Hook's law.Or ( ) Here k is known as force constant and it is a measure of the stiffness of the bond.r 1 and r 2 are the positions of atom 1 and 2 relative to the Centre of Mass (C.M.) of the molecule.
We have consider a diatomic molecule with an internuclear distance r 0 .The molecule has a natural rotation about the axis through its centre of gravity C. The moment of inertia of the molecule is given here.m r m r = (4) and using Equation (3) and Equation ( 4) we can calculate and Substituting the values of r 1 and r 2 in Equation (3) Substituting the value of r 1 from Equation (6) in Equation ( 1), we get ( ) Since r e is constant its differentiation with respect to t will be zero.We can write ( ) Substituting the value of If we put 0 e r r x − = and using Equation (11).
Here x represent the displacement of the bond length from its equilibrium position.Now we can write Equation ( 11) as Equation ( 14) is the Equation of Simple Harmonic Motion (S.H.M.) with frequency of vibration can be expressed in cm −1 .It is called wave number.Now Vibrational energies, like other molecular energies are quantised.These are permitted energies for any particular system.It can be calculated from Schrödinger eqn.The eigen values for the energy of a linear harmonic oscillator are given here.
 is known as vibrational quantum number.
The force constant can be calculated as [4] has studied biological applications of infrared spectroscopy and lot of calculations made regarding the specifications of a particular bond.
By measuring at specific frequency over time, changes in the character or quantity of a particular bond can be measured.Schmit, J. et al. [5] have applied this technique to microbiol and material analysis and given the information regarding the functional groups within the sample.It will absorb the infrared radiation and vibrate in one of a number of ways, either stretching, bending, deformation or combination vibrations.
The intensities of the bands in the spectrum are proportional to the concentration of their respective functional groups.

Review of the Literature
Naumann, D. [6] has studied some ultra structural information on intact, living bacterial cells and related cellwall fragments by using this technique.
One of the strategies employed by the emergent science of metabolism is metabolic fingerprinting.It involves rapid, high-throughput global analysis to discriminate between the different biological blood samples of complex body disorders.It has been reported that whether clinical, biophysical or biochemical in nature, the clinical tests have been inconsistent and contradictory.Many clinicians thought these tests are unrealistic.Research continues for the optimum diagnostic test for the complex body disorders.FTIR was developed in order to overcome the limitations encountered with dispersive instruments.The main problem was very slow scanning process.Naumann, D. et al. [7] have studied the rapid differentiation and identification of pathogenic bacteria using this spectroscopy and multivariate statistical analysis.They have given their views to develop a method.The method for measuring all of the infrared frequencies simultaneously was needed.The solution of this problem was developed.It is a well established and developing analytical method, which allows for rapid, high throughput, non-destructive analysis of a wide range of sample types.
Ellis, D. I. et al. [8] have studied metabolic profiling with the help of this spectroscopy and reported that the vibration in the wave number region 2800 cm -1 to 3050 cm -1 can be ascribed to CH 2 and CH 3 stretching vibrations from fatty acids.The vibrations in the region 1500 cm -1 to 1750 cm -1 are ascribed to C=O, N-H and C-N from proteins and peptides.

Amide A band is due to N-H stretching vibration.This mode of vibration does not depend on the backbone conformation but is very sensitive to the strength of a hydrogen bond.It has wave numbers between 3225 cm -1 and 3280 cm -1 for hydrogen bond lengths between 2.69 to 2.85 Ǻ.
Amide I band the most intense absorption band in proteins.It is governed by the stretching vibrations of the C=O (70% -85%) and C-N groups (10% -20%).Its frequency is found in the range between 1600 cm -1 -1700 cm -1 .The exact band position is determined by the backbone conformation and the hydrogen bonding pattern.
Amide II band results from the N-H bending vibration (40% -60%) and from the C-N stretching vibration (18% -40%).This band is conformationally sensitive.Amide III and amide IV are very complex bands resulting from a mixture of several coordinate displacements.The out of plane motions are found in amide V, VI and VI bands.

Discussion
Abaturov L. V. et al. [54] have reported the observed frequencies of four amide bands of IgG, its peptide chains and proteolytic fragments.The frequencies and the shape of the amide bands of sulfonated IgG and F(ab') 2 fragment were identical to those of the complete molecule.Position of the band maximum e.g.namely amide I, amide II, amide A and amide B in IgG, light chain of IgG and F ab fragments of IgG have been found to be 1644 cm -1 , 1550 cm -1 , 3295 cm -1 and 3055 cm -1 respectively.Amide A and Amide I bands are intact and found in all diseased and normal samples.Amide II band is found in two cases of paralysis and one case of epilepsy and migraine.This band was absent in DMD, Alzheimer's disease and controls.Amide IV band is found in some cases of DMD, Alzheimer's disease and normal samples only.This band is absent in epilepsy, migraine and paralysis samples.Amide V band is found in some cases of paralysis and normal samples only.No trace of this band was found in epilepsy, migraine, DMD and Alzhei- Amide VI band is found in two case of Alzheimer's disease and normals.Amide VI band is absent in epilepsy, migraine, paralysis and DMD also.Carbide compound is found in paralysis, Alzheimer's disease, DMD and normals only.This compound was absent in epilepsy and migraine samples.Hydrocarbon (C-H) band is found in paralysis, Alzheimer's disease and normals only.This band is absent in DMD, epilepsy and migraine.Peroxide compound is found in all the diseases and normals.On the bases of FTIR findings we have found some bands which are completely absent in diseases compared to normal healthy persons and some bands are found in all the cases.We can say that the structure of IgG was not completely disturbed and partially damaged and many other methods of different techniques of science may be applied to maintain the structure of IgG.Some clinical and medicinal procedures may be fruitful for the safe recovery of the structure.Now further directions of research are needed to study more.The complex shape and asymmetry of Amide I band are indications of high heterogenicity of the secondary structure of IgG.The maxima of this band (1644 cm -1 ) arises due to irregular conformation and the shoulder (1637 cm -1 ) observed with the better resolution appears due to β-structure.
The inflexion at 1665 cm -1 shows the presence of an irregular and β-conformations as the major elements of the secondary structure of IgG.The band frequencies of the papain fragments of IgG are almost identical to the intact IgG molecule.However, we notice a little difference in the shape of the amide I band.This band possesses greater half-width in the infrared spectrum of the F c fragment; compared to the full IgG and the F ab fragments.The shape of the amide II band in the infrared spectra of the F ab and F c fragments is very near to the full IgG.There are no strong differences in the position and in the shape of the amide bands of IgG as compared with both of the papain fragments.
The technique of spectroscopy has used for study the secondary structures of polypeptides and proteins.Krimm, S. et al. [9] have given a proof of nine characteristic vibrational bands or group frequencies that arise  from the amide groups of protein.Among them, the amide I band (1700 cm -1 to 1620 cm -1 ) is due to C=O stretching vibration of the peptide linkages that constitute the backbone structure.The another intense absorption band is amide II band (1600 cm -1 to 1500 cm -1 ) due to an out-of-phase combination of N-H in plane bending and C-N stretching vibrations of peptide groups has been used for determination of protein structures.There is a peculear feature is high sensitivity to small variations in molecular geometry and hydrogen bonding makes amide I band uniquely very useful for analyzing protein secondary structures and monitoring the conformational changes in proteins that involve secondary structure.Each type of secondary structure gives rise to a different C=O stretch frequency in the amide I region of the infrared spectra.

Conclusions
Some amino acid residues, especially arginine, asparagines, glutamine, asparatic and glutamic acids, lysine, tyrosine, histidine and phenylaline have very fast absorption in the amide band region.
Many diseases generate specific changes in the metabolic pattern of blood or other body fluids.These changes may produce particular spectroscopic indications, which can be used for identification and classification of the diseases in seconds to minutes.
In the present work we have succeeded in identifying the basic atomic level transformations occurring in different neurological disturbances.It is possible, on the basis of our investigations to use this technique for differential diagnosis of the various pathological disorders and to some extent the stage of the disease.It has already been pointed out that the infrared spectra exhibit the presence of specific bands peculiar to a particular disease such as epilepsy, migraine, headache, paraplegia, Alzheimer's disease and muscular dystrophy as compared to the normal samples.
The FTIR experimental findings show that the stability of the secondary structure in these neurological perturbations is completely disturbed.

0 = Incident radiation; I = Transmitted radiation, A is the absorption of the band; b is the path length, ε is the molar proportionality constant called molar absorptivity.It is the characteristic of each functional group, c is the concentration of the functional group.FTIR spectroscopy requires more sample preparation and does not have the ability of confocal imaging.The physical effect of infrared may be created by the procedure of absorption and influences the dipole and ionic bands such as O-H, N-H and C=O.This spectroscopy is due to changes in dipole moment during molecular vibration.A block diagram of FTIR spectrophotometer is shown in Figure 2.
