  1. Department of Dermatology and Allergy Charité - Universitätsmedizin Berlin Overview of noninvasive methods for determination of carotenoid concentrations in mammalian skin M.E. Darvin, J. Lademann Charité-Universitätsmedizin Berlin, Center of Experimental and Applied Cutaneous Physiology, Department of Dermatology, Venerology and Allergology, Berlin, Germany

  2. Carotenoidsareknowntobe powerful antioxidantsactingeffectivelyagainstreactiveoxygenspecies. The abilityofcarotenoidstoquenchoxygenradicals (includingsingletoxygen) isrelatedtotheconjugatedcarbon double-bond system, andmaximumprotectionisprovidedbythosehavingnineormore double bonds. Most prominent carotenoidsbeingaccumulated in human skinare beta-carotene (9 double bonds) andlycopene (11 double bonds) andtheirisomers.

  3. High-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) is a widely used „gold standard“ method for determination of carotenoids. This method is highly invasive, time-consuming and expansive. Moreover, the oxidation of carotenoids during the sample preparation cannot be excluded. For analyzing the kinetics of carotenoids in the skin noninvasive methods are irreplaceable and should be performed.

  4. Carotenoids cannot be detected in the skin using fluorescence analyses because their fluorescence efficiency is very low (10-4-10-5). Optical methods for noninvasive determination of carotenoids in mammalian skin: 1. resonance Raman spectroscopy 2. Raman microscopy 3. reflection spectroscopy 4. skin color measurements

  5. Resonance Raman spectroscopy 1 – Ar+ laser; 2 – lens system; 3 – filter (488nm/514.5nm); 4, 9 – optical fiber; 5 – excitation channel; 6 – optical imaging system; 7 – skin; 8 – receiving channel; 10 – spectrometer; 11 – CCD; 2 – computer; 13 – photo detector Darvin et al. J. Biomed. Opt. 18(6), 061230, 2013

  6. Fiber optic-based resonance Raman spectroscopy for endoscopic measurement of carotenoid oxidative breakdown in living tissue Excitation wavelength 488 nm Brandon et al. Cancer Prev. Res. 3(4): 529-538, 2010

  7. Resonance Raman spectroscopy Advantages: - measurement quickness - high sensitivity - selectivity between beta-carotene and lycopene - increasing the measurement accuracy using photobleaching effect - measurement stability - transportability Limitations: - influence of other carotenoids - reabsorption of Raman signal at 527.2 nm by lycopene Darvin et al. J. Biomed. Opt. 18(6), 061230, 2013

  8. Raman microscopy 1 – laser (NIR or VIS); 2 – short-pass filter; 3 – objective; 4 – mirrors; 5 – skin; 6 – laser rejection filter; 7 – lens; 8 – optical fiber; 9 – spectrometer; 10 – CCD; 11 – computer Darvin et al. J. Biomed. Opt. 18(6), 061230, 2013

  9. Raman microscopy Advantages: - measurementof axial distributionofcarotenoids in theskin Limitations: - lowandverylowcarotenoidconcentrationsare not detectableunder non-resonant excitation - bulkysize - high price Darvin et al. J. Biomed. Opt. 18(6), 061230, 2013

  10. Reflectancespectroscopy 1 – LED (440 - 490 nm); 2 – skin; 3 – focusing system; 4 – replicated holographic grating spectrometer; 5 – Bluetooth Darvin et al. J. Biophotonics 5(7): 550-558, 2012
