  • Publication number: 20250093326
    Abstract: Method for evaluating cardiomyocytes using Raman scattering: a Raman spectrum of cardiomyocytes artificially induced to differentiate from pluripotent stem cells is acquired, an intensity of Raman-scattered light for a protein containing at least one of heme b and heme c as a prosthetic group is acquired from the Raman spectrum, and a state of progress of maturation of the cardiomyocytes is evaluated on the basis of the intensity of the Raman-scattered light. Method for evaluating differentiation into cardiomyocytes using Raman scattering: cells which are pluripotent stem cells are artificially induced to differentiate into cardiomyocytes, a Raman spectrum of the cells induced to differentiate is acquired, an intensity of Raman-scattered light for at least one of heme b and heme c is acquired from the Raman spectrum, and a state of progress of differentiation of the cells into cardiomyocytes is evaluated on the basis of the intensity of the Raman-scattered light.
