Abstract
Thin films obtained by centrifugation of blood serum of healthy people and people with viscera diseases are studied by methods of spectral ellipsometry and infrared spectroscopy. Physical properties of such films are found to depend on the bio-organic composition of blood serum, which, in turn, is determined by pathological processes proceeding in the human organism. It is of interest that spectral ellipsometry and infrared spectroscopy are suitable nondestructive express methods of screening, i.e., preliminary blood diagnostics for patients with viscera pathology. Ellipsometric data on specific features of formation of bio-organic coatings from blood serum of patients with diffuse pathology of liver, hyperlipidemia, and diabetes mellitus are validated by changes in the fine structure of infrared spectra.
