FTIR spectra were generated from tissues samples using infrared wavenumber from 4 000 to 1 000 cm-1 region. The ratios of spectral intensity and relative intensity ratios (I/1 460) were calculated. Principal component analysis (PCA) and Fisher’s Linear discriminant analysis (LDA) were applied to distinguish the malignant from normal. From 4 000 to 1 700 cm-1, principal components 1 (PC1) was 3 260 cm-1 and PC2 was 1 740 cm-1; from 1 700 to 1 000 cm-1, PC1 was 1 640 cm-1 ab PC2 was 1 080 cm-1. Four prominent significant wavenumbers at 1 080 , 1 640, 1 740 and 3 260 cm-1 separated cancer spectra from normal spectra into two distinct groups using PCA. T test associated with relative intensity ratios (I1 080/I1 460, I1 640/I1 460, I3 260/I1 460, I1 740/I1 460) revealed that these wavenumbers were also able to distinguish cancer and normal lymph nodes spectra. The bands 3 260, 1 640,1 550, 1 080 and 1 740 cm-1, associated with Protein, nucleic acid and lipid. Compared with normal lymph nodes tissues, malignat lymph nodes significant increased (p<0.05),but 1 740 cm-1 decreased. Six parameters (wavenumbers 1 080 and P1 300 cm-1, relative intensity ratios I1 080/I1 460, I1 640/I1 460, I3 260/I1 460, I1 740/I1 460) were selected as independent factors to perform discriminant functions. The sensitivity for PCA/LDA mode in diagnosing lymph nodes was 87.5% by discriminant analysis. The results demonstrate that FTIR is as a useful technique for detection malignant and normal lymph nodes, FTIR may be applied in clinical as a noninvasive, high sensitivity and specificity method for lymph nodes diagnosis.
